Sorry one last bit is still niggling me. I would think that if a flow was being reported because the Meter or Exporter wanted to reclaim resources, it would use the flowEndReason of "lack of resources 0x05". This gives a clear indication that the flow is no longer being tracked and that any future record for that connection will be with a new flowStartTime. I think that is why I considered it reasonable to maintain the original flowStartTime with the "active timeout 0x02" flowEndReason. Of course reading it now I understand what was in the mind of the authors. If the field had been "flowReportReason" rather than "flowEndReason" perhaps it could have dealt with the concepts updates more easily :-) Thanks again.
