Can someone provide a link, or more detail, on the netflow issues.
Particularly as they relate to 6509's and sup720's.


mls table can hold 256K entries at 93% efficiency, so you end up with about 239K flows total. No packet-sampled control of flow creation, so the table is likely to be overflowed in production edge situations, leading to non-deterministically skewed stats.

No logical OR of TCP flags throughout a TCP flow - can't classify SYN- floods, RST-floods, et. al.

No stats on dropped traffic.

        Unfortunately, inefficiency scales really well.
