NetFlow: History, Versions & Protocol description

The extracted context around NetFlow shows recurring relationship patterns in the source. For example, NetFlow → Abstract Data TypesRFC, ApplicabilityRFC, Application Information, Architecture, Authors, BGP Community Information, Bidirectional Flow Export Using, Candidate Protocols, Cisco Systems Export, Cisco-Specific Information Elements Reused, Configuration Data Model, Constrained NetworksRFC, Data Link Layer Traffic, Definitions, Evaluation, Exchange, Export, Export Benchmarking MethodologyRFC, Exporting MIB Variables Using, Exporting Type Information Another extracted example is NetFlow → Alaxala, Alcatel Lucent, Allied Telesis, Argus, Arista Networks, Audit Record Generation, Brocade, Cisco, Cisco Trademarks, D-Link, Dell, Enterasys, EricssonAppFlow CitrixsFlow, Extreme, F5 BIG-IP, Fortinet, Hewlett-Packard, Hitachi, HPNetStream, Huawei. Use these groups to spot repeated connection types before inspecting the individual relationships.

Use these terms to understand the vocabulary surrounding the topic, not as a checklist for keyword stuffing.

TTTA extracted 181 structured relationships around NetFlow. Examples in this analysis include NetFlow → is a → feature that was introduced on Cisco routers around 1996 that provides the ability to collect IP network traffic as it enters or exits an interface and the source → instance of → a network administrator can determine things. The table shows each extracted connection, where it came from and its confidence.

The concept neighborhoods around NetFlow bring nearby vocabulary together. In this analysis, examples include Routers, Flow and Ip. Use the clusters to find adjacent concepts and terminology that may deserve separate research.

For NetFlow, one of the stronger structural bridges in this analysis connects NetFlow with Versions. Bridges highlight paths between different parts of the map and can reveal research angles that are easy to miss in a flat list.
