Release Information Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.6.
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.1X48 for PTX Series Packet Transport
routers.
Support at the [edit forwarding-options analyzer analyzer-name input] hierarchy level
introduced in Junos OS Release 14.1 for MX Series routers.
Description Set the maximum length of the packet used for port mirroring or traffic sampling. Packets
with lengths greater than the specified maximum are truncated.
NOTE: The maximum-packet-length statement is not supported when you
configure inline flow monitoring (by including the inline-jflow statement at
the [edit forwarding-options sampling instance instance-name family (inet |
inet6) output] hierarchy level).
NOTE: The maximum-packet-length statement is not supported on MX80
Series routers.
NOTE: For MX Series routers with Modular Port Interface Concentrators
(MPCs), when maximum-packet-length (clip length) is configured for
port-mirrored packets and the mirror-destination interface is a
next-hop-group, the clip length is effective only for the first member interface
of the next-hop-group. The mirrored packet copy sent to the rest of the
interfaces is not clipped.
Native analyzer sessions (that is, the [edit forwarding-options analyzer
analyzer-name input] hierarchy level for MX Series routers) can be configured
without specifying input parameters, which means that the instance uses
default input values: rate = 1 and maximum-packet-length = 0.
Options bytes—Maximum length (in bytes) of the mirrored packet or the sampled packet.
Range: 0 through 9216
Default: 0
