EKI-9500 Series User Manual
The following table describes the items in the previous figure.
Flow Based
Use the Time Based Flow Statistics page to define criteria for collecting time-based
statistics for specific traffic flows. The statistics include a per-interface hit count
based on traffic that meets the match criteria configured in a rule for the interfaces
included in the rule. The hit count statistics are collected only during the specified
time range. The statistics application uses the system clock for time-based reporting.
Configure the system clock (manually or through SNTP) before using the time-based
statistics feature.
