Consider the following partial configuration on router R2:
flow exporter EXPORTER-1 destination 192.168.1.100 source Loopback0 transport udp 2055 ! flow monitor MONITOR-2 exporter EXPORTER-1 record netflow ipv4 original-input cache timeout active 30 !
interface GigabitEthernet0/2 ip flow monitor MONITOR-2 input
!
What is the effect of this configuration?

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The router will export NetFlow version 9 records containing IPv4 source and destination addresses, protocol, and packet/byte counts.
Why this is correct
The record 'netflow ipv4 original-input' is a predefined Flexible NetFlow record that matches traditional NetFlow fields (source/destination IP, protocol, etc.) and exports them in NetFlow v9 format.
- ✗
The router will export NetFlow version 5 records because the exporter uses UDP port 2055.
Why it's wrong here
The record type determines the export format; 'netflow ipv4 original-input' uses NetFlow v9, not v5. The UDP port does not dictate the version.
- ✗
The flow monitor will only collect traffic on the input direction of GigabitEthernet0/2, but no export will occur because the exporter is not applied to the monitor.
Why it's wrong here
The exporter is correctly applied under the flow monitor configuration with the 'exporter EXPORTER-1' command.
- ✗
The flow monitor will export flows every 30 seconds only if the flow is idle for that period.
Why it's wrong here
The 'cache timeout active 30' exports active flows every 30 seconds, not idle flows.
