PurposeCommand or Action
Device(config-flow-record)# match
connection server transport port
Specifies a match to the observation point ID
for flow observation metrics.
match flow observation point
Example:
Step 10
Device(config-flow-record)# match flow
observation point
Specifies to collect the direction — Ingress or
Egress — of the relevant side — Initiator or
collect flow direction
Example:
Step 11
Responder — of the bi-directional flow that is
Device(config-flow-record)# collect flow
direction
specified by the initiator keyword in the
collect connection initiator command in the
step below. Depending on the value specified
by the initiator keyword, the flow direction
keyword takes the following values :
• 0x01 = Ingress Flow
• 0x02 = Egress Flow
When the initiator keyword is set to initiator,
the flow direction is specified from the initiator
side of the flow. When the initiator keyword
is set to responder, the flow direction is
specified from the responder side of the flow.
For wired AVC, the initiator keyword is
always set to initiator.
Specifies to collect the side of the flow —
Initiator or Responder — relevant to the
collect connection initiator
Example:
Step 12
direction of the flow specified by the collect
Device(config-flow-record)# collect
connection initiator
flow direction command. The initiator
keyword provides the following information
about the direction of the flow :
• 0x01 = Initiator - the flow source is the
initiator of the connection
For wired AVC, the initiator keyword is
always set to initiator.
Specifies to collect the number of connection
initiations observed.
collect connection new-connections
Example:
Step 13
Device(config-flow-record)# collect
connection new-connections
Specifies to collect the number of packets sent
by the client.
collect connection client counter packets
long
