Figure 2-24 Report Templates List

If you select Save as Template in a custom report form that was created from a template, you can modify the template definition if you keep the existing template name when prompted for the name. You can also create a new template by specifying a new name.

For example, to create an hourly top-talkers report template for the previous hour, do the following:

Step 1 Navigate Reports > Custom Reports.

Step 2 Click the Previous hour radio button to specify the Relative Date and Time.

Step 3 Select the Devices strategy to use. Specify either Combined devices or Single device.

Step 4 Select an aggregator whose aggregation scheme contains the srcaddr key and octets value.

Step 5 Select the srcaddr key and octet value.

Step 6 Click Save as Template.

Step 7 Enter the template name as previous-hour-top-talkersand click OK.

The template is saved. You can recall this template and run a report listing the previous hour’s top talkers at any time.

Scheduled Reports

Scheduled reports are generated by the Report Generator on a regular basis. Beginning with Cisco NetFlow Collector 5.0.2, the Report Generator supports running multiple types of reports simultaneously. You can configure the scheduled reports using the web-based UI.

Configuring Scheduled Reports

Clicking on the Scheduled Reports folder in the navigation tree displays a table of all existing types of scheduled reports, as shown in Figure 2-25.
