collect counter
To configure the number of bytes or packets in a flow as a non-key field for a flow record, use the collect
counter command in flow record configuration mode. To disable the use of the number of bytes or packets
in a flow (counters) as a non-key field for a flow record, use the no form of this command.
collect counter { bytes layer2 long| bytes long| packets long }
no collect counter
{
bytes layer2 long| bytes long| packets long
}
Syntax Description
Configures the number of Layer 2 bytes seen in a flow as a non-key field, and
enables collecting the total number of Layer 2 bytes from the flow using a 64-bit
counter.

Command History

Usage Guidelines
The collect counter bytes long command configures a 64-bit counter for the number of bytes seen in a flow.
The collect counter packets long command configures a 64-bit counter that will be incremented for each
packet seen in the flow. It is unlikely that a 64-bit counter will ever restart at 0.
To return this command to its default settings, use the no collect counter or default collect counter flow
record configuration command.
Examples The following example configures the total number of bytes in the flows as a non-key field:
Device(config)# flow record FLOW-RECORD-1
Device(config-flow-record)# collect counter bytes long
The following example configures the total number of packets from the flows as a non-key field:
Device(config)#
flow record FLOW-RECORD-1
Device(config-flow-record)#
collect counter packets long
