Field with a IP or ID of goflow instance.

[giovaneh]

Hello everyone.

I'm setting up an environment where I have a few GoFlow2 instances.

One of the metrics we use is to identify the origin of the flow.

We already know who created the flow, but we don't know who collected it.

This is important to us. We need to know which collector the equipment is connected to, since we use IP anycast.

I tried using mapping, but without success.

If anyone can give me some light, I would be immensely grateful.

Hi @giovaneh,
Unfortunately there is currently no possibility to add a constant value out of the box. You will need to edit the code.
This said, it's a good idea and will likely consider it for a future enhancement.
