And finally associate the flow monitor to all the interfaces you would monitor with your flow analyzer. Go to the ‘interface config’ mode for each interface and apply the command:

ip flow monitor NetFlow-to-Orion

input \ Or use the name of your custom flow monitor

The above command attaches the flow monitor to the interface you selected after which the ingress traffic that passes across the interface is captured and send to your flow analyzer for reporting.
