Not receiving flows - Netflow v5

Votes:

0

I have a PC setup with the Network Monitoring tool. I have it configured to pull the data from one of my routers, but I am not receiving any data. Firewall and Antivirus have been disabled.

Here is the configuration from my router:

ip flow-export source Loopback0 
ip flow-export destination 10.31.72.60 2055 
ip flow-top-talkers 
top 30 
sort-by bytes 
cache-timeout 30000 
! 

Netflow is definitely logging the Netflows, but my PC just isn't receiving them for some reason:

USWMVARTOPS001>sh ip flow ex
Flow export v1 is enabled for main cache
  Exporting flows to 10.31.72.60 (2055)
  Exporting using source interface Loopback0

  0 flows failed due to lack of export packet
  0 export packets were sent up to process level
  0 export packets were dropped due to no fib
  0 export packets were dropped due to adjacency issues
  0 export packets were dropped due to fragmentation failures
  0 export packets were dropped due to encapsulation fixup failures

In order to find out if proper and compatible Netflow packets are arriving at the PRTG host, please use our Netflow Tester. Please post a screenshot or the log from the tester.
