fm add flow

fm add flow - Add the configuration of a FlowMETER flow

Description:
Add a FlowMETER flow and define its state and associated filter

Syntax:

  fm add flow <device-name> port <port-name> priority <decimal>
            {{state {enable | disable}} |
            {filter {l2 | ipv4 | ipv6 | none}
            {<filter-name>}}}+

  <device-name> = <string>
  <port-name>   = <string>
  <filter-name> = <string>

Parameters:

Parameter Description
device-name The name of the remote device.
port-name The name of the port to configure, either NNI or UNI.
priority The priority of the flow for which the FlowMETER configuration should be applied.
state Whether the specified FlowMETER flow should be enabled or disabled.
filter The filter to use for the specified FlowMETER flow. If the filter type is 'none', the filter association is removed.

fm clear statistics

fm clear statistics - Clear FlowMETER statistics

Description:
Clear FlowMETER statistics for the specified device and/or ports. If no argument of port is provided, clear statistics for all ports, on either NNI or UNI ports.

Syntax:

  fm clear statistics <device-name> {port <port-name>}*

  <device-name> = <string>
  <port-name>   = <string>

Parameters:

Parameter Description

Description:
Show the current FlowMETER configuration.
If no argument is provided, display all currently configured flows for all devices on either NNI or UNI ports.
If a port name is provided, a configuration summary for the port is displayed in a table format. If <priority> is provided together with the port name, the detailed FlowMETER configuration is displayed for the flow.

Syntax:

  fm show configuration <device-name> port <port-name> priority <decimal>

  <device-name> = <string>
  <port-name> = <string>

Parameters:

Parameter Description
device-name The name of the remote device.
port-name The name of the port for which the FlowMETER configuration should be displayed.
priority The priority of the flow for which the FlowMETER configuration should be displayed.

fm show sampling

fm show sampling - Show the FlowMETER sampling configuration

Description:
Show the current FlowMETER sampling configuration.
If no argument is provided, display sampling configurations for all devices.
If a device name is provided, a detailed configuration for this device is displayed.

Syntax:

  fm show sampling {<device-name>}*

  <device-name> = <string>

Parameters:

Parameter Description
device-name The name of the remote device.

fm show statistics

fm show statistics - Show FlowMETER statistics

Description:
Display a number of FlowMETER statistics including packet and byte counters.
If no argument of port is provided, display statistics for all ports, on either NNI or UNI ports.

Note: Statistics annotated with * might contain partial information due to missed sampling periods from the remote device.
