Hello!

I have 7200-G1 router runing IOS 12.3T and configured for
do netflow stats:

ip flow-cache entries 524288
ip flow-cache timeout active 10
...
ip flow-export version 5
ip flow-export destination X.X.X.X NN


But seems to reach maximum cache entries limit:

Router# sh ip cache flow
...
IP Flow Switching Cache, 35653632 bytes
  524286 active, 2 inactive, 2632855 added
  2582130 ager polls, 0 flow alloc failures
  Active flows timeout in 10 minutes
  Inactive flows timeout in 15 seconds


What IOS do with new flow record when no free flow-cache
entries are available?

Is there any way to increase max value?

Thanks for advices!
