Flow Export Configuration

To analyze network traffic using Site24x7, you first have to configure your network devices to export flows to Site24x7 On-Premise Poller. The different flow formats supported by Site24x7 are NetFlow, sFLow, JFlow, IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX), NetStream, and Appflow. Once the device starts exporting flow data, you can view the traffic data on the Site24x7 web console.
