Cisco Cisco Prime Assurance Manager 1.1 Installationsanleitung

Once NetFlow is enabled, you can configure the device to export NetFlow data to Prime AM using these IOS 
configuration-mode commands:

ip flow-export version 5

ip flow-export destination PAMIP PAMPort

ip flow-export source interfaceName

where:

 is the IP address of the Prime AM server

 is the UDP port on which the Prime AM server is listening for NetFlow data (the default is 9991)

 is the name of the interface sending NetFlow data to the specified PAMIP. This will cause the source 

interface’s IP address to be sent to Cisco Prime Assurance Manager as part of NetFlow export datagrams.

For more information on NetFlow configuration, see:

Ensure that your NAMs are placed appropriately in the network. For more information, see:

—Includes deployment scenarios and covers a variety of topics, 

including deploying NAMs in the branch, and deploying NAMs for WAN optimization.

—See the topic “Places in the Network Where NAMs Are Deployed”.

If your NAMs are deployed properly, then no other pre-installation work is required. When you conduct discovery using 
Cisco Prime AM, you will need to enter HTTP access credentials for each of your NAMs.

Prime AM uses a more efficient REST interface to query NAMs. For this reason, it does not support the direct export 
of NetFlow data from NAMs. Any device exporting NetFlow data must export that NetFlow data directly to Prime 
AM, not via a NAM. Exporting NetFlow data from any NAM to Cisco Prime Assurance Manager will result in data 
duplication.

To ensure that Prime AM can collect application performance data, use the IOS mace (for Measurement, Aggregation and 
Correlation Engine) keyword to configure Performance Agent (PA) data flow sources on your branch-office and data center 
routers. 

For example, use the following commands in IOS global configuration mode to configure a PA flow exporter on a router: 

flow exporter mace-export

destination 172.30.104.128

transport udp 9991

Use commands like the following to configure flow records for applications with flows across the router: 

flow record type mace mace-record

collect application name

collect art all

where application name is the name of the application whose flow data you want to collect.

To configure the PA flow monitor type:

flow monitor type mace mace-monitor

record mace-record

exporter mace-export
