Restrictions

The following restrictions apply to version 9 templates:

You cannot apply the two different types of flow aggregation configuration (cflowd version 5/8 and flow aggregation version 9) at the same time.
Flow export based on an mpls-ipv4 template assumes that the IPv4 header follows the MPLS header. In the case of Layer 2 VPNs, the packet on the provider router (P router) would look like this:MPLS | Layer 2 Header | IPv4
In this case, mpls-ipv4 flows are not created on the PIC, because the IPv4 header does not directly follow the MPLS header. Packets are dropped on the PIC and are accounted as parser errors.
Outbound Routing Engine traffic is not sampled. A firewall filter is applied as output on the egress interface, which samples packets and exports the data. For transit traffic, egress sampling works correctly. For internal traffic, the next hop is installed in the Packet Forwarding Engine but sampled packets are not exported.
Flows are created on the monitoring PIC only after the route record resynchronization operation is complete, which is 60 seconds after the PIC comes up. Any packets sent to the PIC would be dropped until the synchronization process is complete.
