I would like to inquire whether the Flowmon product officially supports forwarding NetFlow/IPFIX data directly to Splunk using Forwarding Targets
I would like to inquire whether the Flowmon product officially supports forwarding NetFlow/IPFIX data directly to Splunk using Forwarding Targets
If such integration is supported, could you please provide documentation or configuration guidance for setting it up effectively?
Hello,
there are two ways to forward Netflow/IPFIX data from Flowmon to a 3rd party appliance. You can either set it up on your monitoring ports (Flowmon probe) or configure the forwarding targets in the FMC configuration (Flowmon collector). To set it up, you just need to know the address of your target device (Splunk) and the listening port.

This should work for any 3rd party device which supports the standard Netflow/IPFIX data collection. There is no further integration needed.
