Spiky NTA graphs

$

Hi all,

 

We've been using NTA for a while, but finding it's value fairly limited. The main reason is that it doesnt appear to reflect actual usage of the interfaces we're monitoring. For example, we monitor outside interfaces on routers, or layer 2 passthrough interfaces on core switches, but ALL of our NTA data then shows up with a very spiky graph, which seems to show bursted usage and not actual usage.

 

I'm not sure if this is how NetFlow data is supposed to look, but it doesn't look right to me.

Here is our netflow config on the core of this specific device:

 

flow record NetFlow-In

match ipv4 tos

match ipv4 ttl

match ipv4 protocol

match ipv4 source address

match ipv4 destination address

match transport source-port

match transport destination-port

match interface input

collect counter bytes long

collect counter packets long

!

flow record NetFlow-Out

match ipv4 tos

match ipv4 ttl

match ipv4 protocol

match ipv4 source address

match ipv4 destination address

match transport source-port

match transport destination-port

match interface output

collect counter bytes long

collect counter packets long

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/23

ip flow monitor FLOW-IN input

ip flow monitor FLOW-OUT output

!

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24

ip flow monitor FLOW-IN input

ip flow monitor FLOW-OUT output

!

interface GigabitEthernet2/0/23

ip flow monitor FLOW-IN input

ip flow monitor FLOW-OUT output

!

interface GigabitEthernet2/0/24

ip flow monitor FLOW-IN input

ip flow monitor FLOW-OUT output

 

Anyone have any ideas if this is right or not?
