The destination command is required to complete the flow record and specify the IP address of the Stealthwatch collector that will receive the NetFlow data. The transport udp 2055 command is also needed, but it is part of the flow exporter configuration, not the flow record. The match ipv4 ttl and cache timeout active 60 commands are optional and can be used to customize the flow record, but they are not mandatory. The flow record defines the fields that are collected and exported for each flow, such as source and destination IP addresses, ports, protocols, etc. The flow exporter defines the destination, source, transport protocol, and port for sending the NetFlow data. The flow monitor binds the flow record and the flow exporter together and applies them to an interface. The following is an example of a complete NetFlow configuration for sending data to Stealthwatch:
