Chapter 8 Raw Data Formatting: The RDR Formatter and NetFlow Exporting
Configuring Data Destinations and Categories
Protocol
The following two protocols are supported:
• The RDR Formatter: the Service Control proprietary protocol
• NetFlow V9: an industry standard protocol
These two protocols can be used simultaneously in the same deployment. However, each formatter
destination can support only one protocol.
Transport Type
The following two transport types are available:
• TCP
• UDP
Currently, the transport type is linked to the configured protocol as follows:
• RDRv1 protocol requires TCP transport type
• NetFlow V9 protocol requires UDP transport type
Configuring Data Destinations and Categories

• Configuring the Forwarding Mode, page 8-12
Configuringa Data Destination
There are three general categories of CLI commands related to the configuration of data destinations:
• General commands that apply to both the RDRv1 protocol and the NetFlow protocol
• Commands that are relevant only to the RDR formatter (may affect NetFlow exporting as well)
• Commands relevant only to the NetFlowV9 protocol and the NetFlow exporting support
Options
In order for the data records, either RDRs or NetFlow export packets, from the SCE platform to arrive
at the correct location, the following parameters must be configured:
• ip-address — the IP address of the destination
• portnumber — the port number
• protocol — the protocol used for data sent to the destination (either RDRv1 or NetFlow; if no
protocol is assigned the protocol is RdrV1)
• transport — the transport type, TCP or UDP (optional, as this parameter is determined by the
protocol)
