Monitoring a backbone-to-edge flow identified by proxy IDs
In a network set up as shown in Figure 6 on page 45, for a flow passing from Device C to Device A
that is egressing through EX_Port1, the source device (srcdev) is Device C′, the destination device
(dstdev) is Device A, and the egress port (egrport) is EX_Port1. (Traffic is running from left to right,
and the flow definitions are based on the Edge 1 Fabric’s perspective.)
The following example creates a flow that filters out frames passing from the backbone fabric to an
edge fabric using a specific egress port. The first two commands show the available ports and the
available Fibre Channel routers. The third command creates a Flow Monitor flow named
“b2e_dst_dcx” between device 02f001 and device 220200 egressing through port 219, and the last
command displays the results of the flow.
NOTE
The slash character (\) in the example indicates a break inserted because the output is too long to
display here as a single line.
