Is there a minimum time for flow monitor to operate?
When I run my simulation for 30 seconds, the lost packets in flow monitor are being displayed correctly as tx packets - rx packets.
However, when I run the simulation for 10 seconds, the lost packets are always 0, although I can see that packets are being lost.
Is there a minimum time for flow monitor to operate?
My network is not congested.
