PMON commands
This section describes how to configure the protocol monitoring (PMON)
tool. The PMON tool monitors traffic coming into the BSGX4e. PMON can
record one or more traces of the incoming traffic. Only incoming traffic is
monitored. The following statistics are reported by each trace:
z Number of packets (received)
z Number of bytes (received)
z Packet rate
z Bit rate
PMON creates traces by applying filters to the traffic received on the
interfaces. When more than one filter is specified, a logical AND is applied.
The filters can apply to:
z Port (source or destination)
z IP address (source or destination)
z IP ToS tag value
z VLAN ID
z IP protocol
z MAC address (source or destination)
z Interface
Use the following commands to configure PMON:
z pmon agent
z pmon trace
