Frame Monitoring requirements
To configure Frame Monitoring, the following requirements must be met:
• The switch must be running Fabric OS 7.0.0 or later.
• Frame Monitoring requires the Advanced Performance Monitoring license and the Fabric
Watch license.
NOTE
The Advanced Performance Monitoring license is required to configure frame monitors. The
monitoring functionality requires the Fabric Watch license.
The maximum number of frame monitors and offsets per port is platform-specific. Refer to the
Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide for more information.
