It is also called as "observation domain ID" in ipfix. Can you distinct the ipfix/netflow traffic as different device according the value of "observation domain ID" when the src IP is same?

Although PRTG can discern the SourceID there is no option to separate the flow data via the same, at least at the moment. We are already working on an IPFix implementation that should then provide this option, but I would be hard pressed to let you know when the same will be available. Please bear with us.

Thank for your help.

Is there any other way to distinct the traffic? Such like search with the specified filed and value?

Can we do some search according the SourceID value to distinct the traffic?

Could you please elucidate? You can filter based on the source IP, but I'm not certain what you mean with the last requests.

I wonder whether I can fileter based on the SourceID. Thanks.

Yes, that is possible. Please referr to Filter Rules for Flow and Packet Sniffer Sensors

I have checked the filter rules, "SouceID" for netflow 9 is not listed in the page. So it is not supported by the filter rules till now?

You can filter by IP, but not by ID, I'm afraid.
