========================
The Flow Vision interface provides a single interface for flow management that unifies legacy use
cases such as end-to-end (EE) monitors, frame monitors, and so on. The following examples show
how to implement the equivalent functionality using Flow Monitor.
End-to-end monitor
You can use the -bidir keyword to create the equivalent to an end-to-end monitor. The following
example creates a bidirectional Flow Monitor flow between device 02d8c0 and device 023a00
egressing port 4/10 of the switch on which the command is running.
switch:admin> flow --create endtoendflow -feature monitor -egrport 4/10 -dstdev 023a00 -srcdev 02d8c0
-bidir
switch:admin> flow --show endtoendflow
