If the collector is configured to use either Version 9 or Version 10 (IPFIX) formats, the flow data is sent to the designated collector using one of the predefined templates. The template used is based on the type of flow for which the data was collected (IPv4, IPv6, or MPLS), and the configuration of the template-set parameter. The following table lists traffic flow types and the corresponding template used to export the flow data.
| Traffic type | Basic | MPLS-IP |
|---|---|---|
IPv4 |
Basic IPv4 |
MPLS-IPv4 |
IPv6 |
Basic IPv6 |
MPLS-IPv6 |
Each flow exported to a collector, configured for either Version 9 or Version 10 formats, is sent using one of the preceding flow template sets. The template is used based on the flow type and how the template-set parameter of the collector is configured.
