NAME
       flow-send — Transmit flow data with the NetFlow protocol.

SYNOPSIS
       flow-send   [-h]	   [-d	debug_level]   [-m  privacy_mask]   [-s]   [-x
       xmit_delay]  [-V pdu_version] localip/remoteip/port

DESCRIPTION
       The flow-send utility is used to transmit flows in NetFlow format to  a
       collector specified by localip/remoteip/port.

OPTIONS
       -d debug_level
		 Enable debugging.

       -h	 Display help.

       -s	 Enable spoofing of source IP address.

       -m privacy_mask
		 Apply	privacy_mask  to the source and destination IP address
		 of flows.  For example a privacy_mask of 255.255.255.0	 would
		 convert  flows	 with source/destination IP addresses 10.1.1.1
		 and 10.2.2.2 to 10.1.1.0 and 10.2.2.0 respectively.

       -V pdu_version
		 Use pdu_version format when transmitting.

	   1	NetFlow version 1 (No sequence numbers, AS, or mask)
	   5	NetFlow version 5
	   6	NetFlow version 6 (5+ Encapsulation size)
	   7	NetFlow version 7 (Catalyst switches)
	   8.1	NetFlow AS Aggregation
	   8.2	NetFlow Proto Port Aggregation
	   8.3	NetFlow Source Prefix Aggregation
	   8.4	NetFlow Destination Prefix Aggregation
	   8.5	NetFlow Prefix Aggregation
	   8.6	NetFlow Destination (Catalyst switches)
	   8.7	NetFlow Source Destination (Catalyst switches)
	   8.8	NetFlow Full Flow (Catalyst switches)
	   8.9	NetFlow ToS AS Aggregation
	   8.10 NetFlow ToS Proto Port Aggregation
	   8.11 NetFlow ToS Source Prefix Aggregation
	   8.12 NetFlow ToS Destination Prefix Aggregation
	   8.13 NetFlow ToS Prefix Aggregation
	   8.14 NetFlow ToS Prefix Port Aggregation
	   1005 Flow-Tools tagged version 5

       -x xmit_delay
		 Configure a microsecond transmit delay between packets.  This
		 may be necessary in some configurations to prevent a transmit
		 buffer overrun.

EXAMPLES
       Transmit all flows in the directory /flows/krc4	to  the	 collector  at
       10.0.0.1 listening on port 9500.

	 flow-cat /flows/krc4 | flow-send 0/10.0.0.1/9500

       Generate a test pattern of version 7 flows and send them to a collector
       at 10.0.0.1 listening on port 9500.

	 flow-gen -V7 | flow-send 0/10.0.0.1/9500

BUGS
       It is not currently possible to convert between the aggregated  formats
       (8.x) and the non aggregated formats (1,5,6,7).
