Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics
configure flowstats timeout ports
configure flowstats timeout <minutes> ports [<portlist> | all]
Description
Configures the timeout value for flow records on the specified ports.
NOTE
This command is available only on the “i” series switches.
Syntax Description
Default
Five minutes
Usage Guidelines
The timeout is used to export flow records on an age basis. All flow records are examined at least once
every 30 minutes. If the age of the flow record is greater than the configured timeout, the record is
exported. If the flow is still active, a new flow record will be created when the next packet arrives.
For the PoS module, the
minutes
parameter is an integer in the range [1-1440].
Example
The following command configures a timeout value of 15 minutes for ports 1-8:
configure flowstats timeout 15 ports 1-8
This means that flow records for these ports will be exported after they have aged 15 minutes.
