Creating a Flow Monitor flow definition

specific example procedures, refer to
“Flow Monitor example procedures” on page 1153".
1. Select the object on which you want to configure a flow monitor from the Connectivity Map or
Product List. Options include:
-
Switch port
-
Initiator port
-
Target port
-
Switch that supports Flow Vision
2. Select Monitor > Fabric Vision > Flow > Add.
NOTE
You can also right-click on any of these objects in the Connectivity Map or Product List and
select Flow > Add.
The Add Flow Definition dialog box displays populated with criteria and flow identifiers (such as
source and destination identifiers) for the appropriate flow definition based on the selected
object. For example, if you selected a target port, the Add Flow Definition dialog box is
populated with the source device port identifier, ingress switch port identifier, monitor type,
and destination device (as an asterisk). An asterisk (*) denotes any selected device in the
same zone as the source device.
