Hi,

I'm trying to use cflowd with M20/JunOS5.1R1.4. I have several
questions. I'll appreciate your help;

1- Does PR for cflowd in JunOS 5.1 effect also cflowd or only flow-
tools ?

2- cfdcollect complains about missing flows and gives strange flow
loss ratios. It doesn't matter what the sampling rate is, cfdcollect
catches only 29 flows (strangely even on different platforms; alpha,
i686). I've tried 500 pps, 1000 pps, 2000 pps sampling rates on an STM-
1 interface (run-length=0). Always 29 flows are cached. Interface has
40000 pps traffic average. (I'm collecting version 5 flows).cfdcollect
syslog mess. is as fallows;

>[I] missed 1927 of 1956 flows from (null) engine 1075322028
>agg_method 0 (-7.64681e+53% loss)

3- What may be the reasonable sampling rate for a reliable trends
analysis through that interface ?

Thanks & Regards,
arif
