[nsp] number of netflow entries on cat6K w/sup2

[Steve Francis]

Hi ken, hope things are well...

Having recently gone through similar issues with native, I also found 
the netflow documentation a bit sparse...

This is what I came up with..(don't know if the same commands work under 
hybrid, but these are the native ones.):
sho mls netflow ip count
sho mls netflow table-contention det

Also, from ian cox at cisco re similar question of mine:
Exceeding 32k entries on Sup1A, Sup2 just means there is a higher 
probability a flow will not fit into the hardware table. You can check 
the number of packets that statistics are not being recorded for in 
images higher than 12.1(13)E8 or 12.1(19)E1 via:
  remote command switch show earl statis | inc NF_FULL
