To specify the NEs and MDAs for flow statistics collection

Steps
 
1 

Open the NSP Flow Collector web UI. The Collection Policy page is displayed.

2 

Add NEs and IS-AA MDAs, as required.

  1. Click Add. A new table row is displayed.

  2. Configure the following parameters:

    • System ID

      The System ID value must match the System ID that the NFM-P associates with the NE, for example, as shown on the NE properties form in the GUI.

      You can specify multiple MDAs on one NE by adding one table row for each MDA and using the same System ID in each row.

    • Source IPFIX Address

      The Source IPFIX Address value is the NE address specified in the discovery rule for the NE. This address will be used to send IPFIX traffic to the NSP Flow Collector.

    • Description

  3. If the NSP Flow Collector is to collect system Cflowd statistics, configure the following parameters:

    • Port

    • Flow Protocol

Note: For system Cflowd statistics, the combination of System ID, Source IPFIX Address, and Port must be unique.

3 

To delete an NE, select the Delete on save check box beside the NE.

4 

Click Save Configuration. The configuration is saved.
