Installing Intermapper Flows

Consider the following before installing Intermapper Flows:

• Intermapper Flows is installed automatically with Intermapper. For more information, see Installing and Launching Intermapper.
• If you are running a trial version, Intermapper Flows is fully operational. After your trial expires, an Intermapper Flows license is required.
• Remove any firewalls on the selected UDP ports for NetFlow. The default port is 2055.
  
  NOTE: The Intermapper Flows service/daemon might not start if another program is using port 2055 (or whatever port you have designated for netflow packets). Stop or uninstall other netflow packages on the system.
• Configure one or more Flows exporters to send data to the Intermapper Flows server. Intermapper Flows automatically detects the exporters and begins data collection. Many switches and routers can be configured to export Flows data.
