Monitoring traffic packet information using the NetFlow protocol

Kaspersky SD-WAN supports NetFlow versions 1, 5, and 9 for monitoring information about traffic packets on a CPE device.

To avoid configuring each CPE device individually, you can specify basic NetFlow settings in a NetFlow template and then apply the template to devices when adding or manually registering them. If you edit a setting in a NetFlow template, that setting is automatically modified on all CPE devices that are using the template. When you edit a NetFlow setting on a CPE device, that setting becomes independent of the NetFlow template. When the same setting is edited in the NetFlow template, the change is not propagated to the CPE device.

When configuring basic NetFlow settings, you can specify up to four NetFlow collectors. If you want a CPE device to send information about traffic packets to NetFlow collectors, you must enable the NetFlow protocol on network interfaces. The NetFlow protocol can be enabled on a network interface when creating or editing the network interface.
