The following is sample output from the show ip flow top-talkers port command:
Debug Commands
Debug commands are another useful tool in diagnosing problems within the ITM configuration. By
enabling debug commands, debug messages are sent to alert you whenever specified actions take place.
These messages can be beneficial when you are troubleshooting your configuration.
To receive notification whenever a message is sent from the FlowExport to an external data collector, use
the debug ip flow export command. This command indicates when traffic flows are exported and lets you
track which traffic flows are traveling to which destinations. The following is sample output from the
debug ip flow export command:
#debug ip flow export
#show run
ip flow export destination 10.22.22.254 3000
ip flow export vrf BLUE destination 172.16.4.5 65774
*Dec 18 22:45:43: IPFLOW: Sent export pkt #32958 to 10.22.22.254:3000
*Dec 18 22:45:43: IPFLOW: Sent export pkt #32958 to 172.16.4.5:65774 (BLUE)
To receive messages every time a traffic flow has expired from the flow cache, use the debug ip flow
cache expiration command. Using this command allows you to be notified each time a traffic flow has
expired and is being exported through FlowExport. This notification can be beneficial because it allows
you to verify that the traffic flow expiration time is set correctly, that the traffic flows are being expired
correctly, and that the number of forced expirations of traffic flows is not excessive.
Using debug commands can be very processor intensive, and should be used with caution.
