DISPLAYING SECURE FABRIC OS STATISTICS

Use the secStatsShow command to display statistics for one or all Secure Fabric OS policies,

depending on the operand entered. Only issue this command from the primary FCS switch if the

“list” operand is specified. If the “list” operand is not specified, enter this command from any

switch in the fabric

NOTE

On dual-CP directors, statistics are maintained separately on each CP and are counted only on the

active CP. If a director fails over from the active to the standby CP, statistics are not replicated to the

standby CP.

To display Secure Fabric OS statistics

1. From a sectelnet or SSH session, log in to the primary FCS switch as admin.

2. Type secStatsShow “name”, “list”.

name is the name of a Secure Fabric OS statistic or the policy that relates to the statistic. The

valid statistic names are listed in Table 16. Enter an asterisk (*) to indicate all statistics. list is

a list of the domain IDs for which to display the statistics. Enter an asterisk (*) to indicate all

switches in the fabric. The default value is that of the local switch. If neither operand is

specified, all statistics for all policies are displayed.

The statistic and number of related attempted policy violations are displayed.For example, to

display Secure Fabric OS statistics for the Management Server policy:

RESETTING SECURE FABRIC OS STATISTICS

Use the secStatsReset command to reset statistics for a particular policy or to reset all policies to

0. This command can be issued on any switch. Recording and resetting the statistics allows you to

identify changes in traffic patterns since the statistics were last reset. Only issue this command

from the primary FCS switch if the “list” operand is specified. If the “list” operand is not specified,

this command can be entered from any switch in the fabric.

To reset a statistic counter to 0

1. Log in to the primary FCS switch as admin from a sectelnet or SSH session.

2. If desired, enter the secStatsShow command and record the current statistics.

3. Type secStatsReset “name”, “list” to reset the statistics.
