Hello Dhanasekaran,

Timestamps in flow records are set by the device that's exporting the data.  If 
some of the devices you're exporting from from have unsynchronized clocks then 
you'll likely get some records with bizarre timestamps.  This has nothing to do 
with how nfcapd works.

Try checking your exporters to make sure they're running ntp and are synced to 
a reliable ntp source.  Hope this helps!
