Version 9 and Version 10 templates

If the collector is configured to use either V9 or V10 (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, MPLS, or Ethernet (Layer 2)), and the configuration of the template-set parameter. Table: Template sets lists these values and the corresponding template used to export the flow data.

Each flow exported to a collector configured for either V9 or V10 formats is sent using one of the flow template sets listed in Table: Template sets.
