Explanation

The syntax of this command is: flow-export destination interface-name ipv4-address | hostname udp-port

This command is used on Cisco ASA to configure Network Secure Event Logging (NSEL) collector to which

NetFlow packets are sent. The destination keyword indicates that a NSEL collector is being configured.

+ The interface-name argument is the name of the ASA and ASA Services Module interface through which the

collector is reached.

+ The ipv4-address argument is the IP address of the machine running the collector application.

+ The hostname argument is the destination IP address or name of the collector.

+ The udp-port argument is the UDP port number to which NetFlow packets are sent.

You can configure a maximum of five collectors. After a collector is configured, template records are

automatically sent to all configured NSEL collectors.

 Suppression is a feature of Cisco Next Generation Intrusion Prevention System (NGIPS) that allows you to reduce false positives and unwanted alerts by filtering out specific traffic from the intrusion detection and prevention process. You can configure suppression based on different criteria, such as port, rule, source, destination, and network. The two valid suppression types for this question are port and rule. Port suppression allows you to exclude traffic based on the source or destination port number, or both. For example, you can suppress alerts for port 80 (HTTP) traffic if you are not interested in web-based attacks. Rule suppression allows you to exclude traffic based on the rule ID (SID) or the rule category. For example, you can suppress alerts for rules that belong to the policy-violations category if you are not concerned about them. You can also suppress alerts for specific rules that are not relevant to your network or generate too many false positives. References

the first three access control rules in the policy—Monitor, Trust, and Block—cannot inspect matching traffic. Monitor rules track and log but do not inspect network traffic, so the system continues to match traffic against additional rules to determine whether to permit or deny it
