Global Commands
cflowd
Syntax [no] cflowd
Context config>cflowd
Description This command creates the context to configure cflowd. 
The no form of this command removes all configuration under cflowd including the deletion of all 
configured collectors. This can only be executed if cflowd is in a shutdown state.
Default no cflowd
active-timeout
Syntax active-timeout minutes
no active-timeout 
Context config>cflowd
Description This command configures the maximum amount of time before an active flow is aged out of the active 
cache. If an individual flow is active for this amount of time, the flow is aged out and a new flow will 
be created on the next packet sampled for that flow.
Existing flows do not inherit the new active-timeout value if this parameter is changed while cflowd 
is active. The active-timeout value for a flow is set when the flow is first created in the active cache 
table and does not change dynamically. 
The no form of this command resets the inactive timeout back to the default value.
Default 30
Parameters minutes — The value expressed in minutes before an active flow is exported.
Values 1 — 600 
cache-size
Syntax cache-size num-entries
no cache-size
