Limitations
• There is an imposed limit of 100 flows. The number of flows within the chosen switch must not
exceed 100.
• For GRANULARITY_MINIMUM, the duration or the start-to-end date range cannot exceed 1
day.
• For GRANULARITY_30MIN, the duration or the start-to-end date range cannot exceed 5 days.
• For GRANULARITY_2HOUR, the duration or the start-to-end date range cannot exceed 20
days.
• For GRANULARITY_1DAY, the duration or the start-to-end date range cannot exceed 200 days.
The following URIs are applicable for traffic flows only. They are supported at the context of a
specific switch.
