flow
The following configuration considerations apply for the Flow Mirror feature:
• The ingress port or the egress port must be an F_Port, which is 8G or less, on the local
switch.
• The Flow Mirror feature is supported only on Gen 5 or later ports.
• EX_Ports, XISL ports, DISL ports, E_Ports, trunked E_Ports, and trunked F_Ports are
not supported.
• AG mode is not supported.
• The Flow Mirror feature is not supported on SIM ports.
• The Flow Mirror feature can be active on only one flow per chassis or switch-based
system.
port_options
Specifies the options to configure the ingress or egress ports.
-ingrport port
Specifies the ingress port. The port can be in either [slot/]port or D,I (Domain, Index) format
depending on the port mode configured using the -portIdMode operand.
-egrport port
Specifies the egress port. The port can be in either [slot/]port or D,I format depending on the
port mode configured using the -portIdMode operand.
The -ingrport and -egrport options are mutually exclusive; that is, you can specify only one
of the options. The learning mode ("*") is not supported.
-mirrorport port
Specifies the port from which mirrored frames exits. The port can be in either [slot/]port or
D,I format depending on the port mode configured using the -portIdMode operand.
frame_options
Specifies the options that represent the content of the FC frame or attributes of the frame.
-srcdev device_id
Specifies the 3-byte source ID of the originator device. The device_id can be in PID or
PWWN format depending on the device ID mode configured using the -deviceIdMode
operand. The PID format is 0xDDAAPP, where DD is the Domain ID, AA is the Area ID and
PP is the AL_PA ID. The PWWN format is "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX". Specify "*" to
enumerate all originator devices.
-dstdev device_id
Specifies the 3-byte destination ID of the destination device. The device_id can be in PID or
PWWN format depending on the device ID mode configured using the -deviceIdMode
operand. The PID format is 0xDDAAPP, where DD is the Domain ID, AA is the Area ID and
PP is the AL_PA ID. The PWWN format is "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX". Specify "*" to
enumerate all destination devices.
-lun LUN_id
Specifies the LUN identification in decimal or hexadecimal (2-byte value) format. The valid
range for LUN_id is from 0 through 65535 (0x0000 to 0xFFFF). The LUN parameter
includes the addressing method and fields associated with the respective addressing
method. If the most significant byte (MSB) is not specified in the flow definition, 0x00 is
used. This operand is not supported by the Flow Generator feature.
