Command Description
a Establishes the IRQ period (measured in milliseconds), which moderates DPI access to the PCI-X
bus. Valid values are 1 to 255, where 1 is no throttling, and 255 is maximum throttling.
c This command is not supported.
d Brings the OS network interface down and disables matching.
f Establishes the maximum number of packets to be captured for each flow (Packets/Flow). A value of
0 specifies all packets.
h Displays help information about the commands.
i Establishes the display refresh interval (measured in seconds).
m Invokes a dialog menu through which dynamic rules can be defined, capture/forwarding policies can
be set for each individual rule, and the firmware can be selected and loaded.(see Figure 14).
q Exits the graphical user interface.
r Reset all the OS counters.
s Starts or restarts the drivers and reloads the firmware.
t Establishes the number of seconds after which a flow is considered expired (Flow Timeout).
