Customer NetFlow v9 Channel not working

Votes:

0

For some reason, my PRTG is not classifying certain traffic into the channel defined. As a result, they are in the default "Other" Channel. For testing, I created a NetFlow v9 Customer sensor,with only one channel:

#70 VoIP_Down
DestinationIP[172.28.11.0/24]

When debugging the stream data log, I can see the flow information such as:

Now,FromDateTime,ToDateTime,EthernetType,Protocol,SourceIP,SourcePort,SourceMAC,DestinationIP,DestinationPort,DestinationMAC,Size,ChannelID,ToS,SenderIP,InboundInterface,OutboundInterface,SourceASI,DestinationASI,SourceMask,DestinationMask,NextHop,SourceVLAN,DestinationVLAN

However the channel "VoIP_Down" doesn't show up in the graph or the channel list. My PRTG version is PRTG Network Monitor 12.3.3.2854

I also tried channel with "DestinationIP[172.28.11.*]" and still falls into "Other" Can someone help to see why?

Hello,

is this an extract from the Stream Log File for only the Other-Channel or for all Flow-Data?

best regards.
