The table view provides all the relevant information for the devices and also suggests whether these devices are 

AVC capable or not. It provides recommendations for AVC capable devices to make them AVC configurable. 

There are three different approaches to enable AVC on routers.  

● 

Use the one-click option to enable it on a single or multiple interface of a router, if this is your first time with 

AVC.  

● 

Use the template option to enable AVC on multiple devices based on the interface role.  

● 

Enable AVC on multiple interfaces and multiple devices for which you could use the location- and device-

based filters. This method will also allow you to configure QoS if needed. See the 

 for 

more details.  

Feature design templates in Cisco Prime Infrastructure can be used to enable AVC on the controllers. You will first 

need to create an exporter configuration template followed by creating a monitor template mapping the exporter 

template and deploy the monitor template on the controllers. See the 

 for more details.  

Now that you have created all the sites where your network equipment is staged, it is time to map those sites to 

their respective subnets, data sources, and VLANs. This allows Cisco Prime Infrastructure to see the traffic flow, 

especially when it comes to application performance. In order to create an endpoint, you can navigate to Services 

>Application Visibility & Control > Endpoint Association. Figure 65 shows how various sites are mapped to 

their subnets. In addition to the subnet mask, you can also specify the default data source desired for that site.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure can collect NetFlow from data sources directly. In case of Cisco Prime Network Analysis 

Module (NAM), Cisco Prime Infrastructure collects all the information from the NAM natively.  

To view all the data sources exporting NetFlow to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, navigate to Service -> Application 

Visibility & Control -> Data Sources. The Device Data Sources lists all the devices that are actively sending 

NetFlow data to Cisco Prime Infrastructure. The NAM Data Collector lists all the NAMs that have been discovered 

or added to the inventory. You can select a NAM and enable/disable data collection from them.
