NetFlow export to multiple collectors possible?

Hello,

I'm successfully collecting NetFlow from our Fortigate 100D firewalls with PRTG.  I want to send Netflow to an additional collector.  Is this possible with FortiOS 5.4.1?  Can I simply add another collector-ip to the NetFlow configuration?

 

Thanks.

It is not, as far as I can tell.  Entering another instance of the command set collector-ip x.x.x.x simply replaces the existing entry with the new one.

Hi Jesse,

It will be great, if you can share me below information:

Which FortiOS version you used to test the netflow?

Also do you need to disable auto-asic-offload on the firewall policy to get the correct netflow information to collector?

Thank you for your help.
