Variable definitions

The following table describes the fields of the Ports tab.

Field Description
Id Indicates the individual port on which the IPFIX parameters are being configured. Ports are itemized in the format Unit / Port.
Flush

  • none - The port data is not flushed.

  • flush - The port data is flushed; deleting it from switch memory.

  • exportAndFlush - The port data is exported to a configured collector and the data is then flushed.

Although this field is displayed on a per port basis, flushing is only supported on a per unit basis in Software Release 5.0.

AllTraffic

  • enable - IPFIX data is collected.

  • disable - IPFIX data is not collected.
