MPLS Enable Monitoring
Earlier, we discussed using the Setup > Data Sources > MPLS Data Sources > L3 VRF task to set up
MPLS traffic streams as subset data sources to be monitored. These data sources can be enabled for
monitoring in the same way as all other data sources.
The NAM can analyze applications, hosts, and conversations and basic in/out statistics for each configured
MPLS data source using the Monitor > MPLS > VRF Statistics task. (Basic statistics are also available for
VC and label flows.)
Note: The NAM analyzes the MPLS traffic based on the tag inside the data packet. When NAM encounters
stacked MPLS tags, the relevant inner-most tag is used for monitoring
