Hi,

I am trying to export v9 BGP next-hop flow-aggregate to the flowd collector,
and it gave me the following output when i run flowd -d

# /usr/local/sbin/flowd -d
read_config: entering
child_get_config: entering
drop_privs: dropping privs without chroot
send_config: entering fd = 5
send_config: done
child_get_config: child config done
recv_config: entering fd = 6
recv_config: ready to receive config
Listener for [127.0.0.1]:8888 fd = 4
privsep_init: entering
drop_privs: dropping privs with chroot
init_pfd: entering (num_fds = 0)
init_pfd: done (num_fds = 2)
client_open_log: entering
answer_open_log: entering
Continuing with existing logfile len 16
^Cflowd_mainloop: monitor closed
privsep_master: child exited

My config file is :

logfile "/var/log/flowd"
listen on 127.0.0.1:8888
flow source <loopback of the router>
store ALL
discard all

Can someone advice if there is any problems with my config file?

Regards,
Cheeyong
