  • 1.  Send Netflow data to two Performance centers

    Posted Jul 17, 2018 01:50 PM

    As part of an upgrade we have set up a second CA Performance center. We would like to have our current Netflow analyzer send flow data to both of the Performance centers. I can only find the way to get the data to one or the other.  We are running 9.3.3

    You can setup a new NFA, use the "Flow Cloner" in current NFA in order to send the Flow to the new NFA

    Add this new NFA in new CAPC environment.

    I wanted to suggest the same thing, using flow cloner. It's resource consuming, but as far as I know, you can only link a NFA console to one PC.

    I was hoping for something that would not require a new server to be stood up.

    Guess I better order it and WAIT.

     

     

    Thank you,

    Depending on the device you could configure a second flow destination instead of using the flow cloner.

     

    You still will require a second NFA setup for the second PC.

    You only link NFA to one CAPC server at a time.
