Administrator Guide

In the following example, the host and server are exchanging traffic which passes through the uplink interface 1/1. Port 1/1 is the
monitored port and port 1/42 is the destination port, which is configured to only monitor traffic received on tengigabitethernet 1/1 (host-
originated traffic).

Enabling Flow-Based Monitoring
Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only specified traffic instead of all traffic on the interface. This feature is
particularly useful when looking for malicious traffic. It is available for Layer 3 ingress traffic. You can specify traffic using standard or
extended access-lists.
NOTE: Flow-based monitoring is supported for known unicast egress traffic.
