flow
Description
Displays the flow definitions and frame statistics. When used without operand, the --show command displays the
list of all flows configured in Flow Vision.
The show on demand feature allows you to display the statistics of the features without creating a flow. To display
the statistics of the features without creating a flow, you must specify the operands without a flow name and
provide a flow definition. The flow will run for a time interval of 6 seconds and the data will be displayed for the
specified features.
