Enabling Flow-Based Monitoring
Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only specied trac instead of all trac on the interface. This feature is 
particularly useful when looking for malicious trac. It is available for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress trac. You can specify trac using 
standard or extended access-lists.
NOTE: Flow-based monitoring is not supported for egress trac.
1  Enable ow-based monitoring for a monitoring session.
MONITOR SESSION mode
flow-based enable
2  Dene IP access-list rules that include the keyword monitor. For port monitoring, Dell Networking OS only considers trac matching 
rules with the keyword monitor.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip access-list
Refer to Access Control Lists (ACLs).
3  Apply the ACL to the monitored port.
INTERFACE mode
ip access-group access-list
Example of the flow-based enable Command
To view an access-list that you applied to an interface, use the show ip accounting access-list command from EXEC Privilege 
mode.
