NetFlow in Transparent VDOM

[fchowdhury]

Hello Team,

Can we configure netflow in transparent vdom of a fortigate firewall running fortios v6.0.10 with no gateway IP configured.

Should be possible but keep in mind netflow is configured in Global VDOM. So it should work fine assuming your Global VDOM is L3-attached.

Hello Graham,

Thanks for the response.

I have three transparent VDOM and a Global VDOM is L3, so if I configure it in global VDOM then all the three transparent VDOM would report to netflow right.

Is there a way to make only one VDOM report to netflow instead of three.

Yes see section "To configure NetFlow in a specific VDOM"

Thanks Graham. I got it worked. It just took sometime to report to netflow server.
