flow monitor m1
    ! monitor refers record configuration and optionally exporter
    ! configuration. It specifies the cache size i.e. how many unique flow
    ! records to collect
    record r1

    cache timeout inactive 30
    cache entries 1000

2. Flow collection is supported on multiple targets (Port, VLAN, per-port per-VLAN (FNF can be 
enabled on a specific VLAN on a given port)) and on a port-channel (FNF is configured on the 
port-channel interface, rather than individual member ports).
3. 64 unique flow record configurations are supported.
4. Flow QoS/UBRL and FNF cannot be configured on the same target. (For information on Flow-based 
QoS, see the section Flow-based QoS, page 44-10.)
5. 14,000 unique IPv6 addresses can be monitored.
6. On a given target, one monitor per traffic type is allowed. However, you can configure multiple 
monitors on the same target for different traffic types.
For example, the following configuration is allowed:
     ! vlan config 10
           ip flow monitor <name> input
           ipv6 flow monitor <name> input
     !
The following configuration is not allowed:
    !
    interface GigabitEthernet 3/1
           ip flow monitor m1 input
           ip flow monitor m2 input
7. On a given target monitoring Layer 2 and Layer 3, simultaneous traffic is not supported:
     interface channel-group 1
           datalink flow monitor m1 input
            ip flow monitor m2 input
! 
8. Selection of Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet fields in a single flow record definition is disallowed. 
However, ingress 802.1Q VLAN Id of packet and Layer 3 packet field selection is allowed.
9. To attach a monitor to port or port-vlan targets, a flow record matching on ingress 802.1Q VLAN Id 
as the key field, must also match on the input interface as the key field.
