To specify an LI subscriber as an LI source

Steps
 

Choose Manage→Service→Mirror Services from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Mirror Services form opens.


Select a mirror service and click Properties. The Mirror Service (Edit) form opens.


Expand the Source Site object to view the configured source sites, and expand the source site object on which you are specifying the subscriber as the mirror source.


Right-click on the LI Source Subscribers object below the site in the service navigation tree and choose Create LI Source Subscriber. The LI Source Subscriber (Create) form opens.

Note: An NFM-P operator with LI privileges can view, create, and delete LI source objects.

A mirror site can be configured with debug or LI sources, but not both. LI source configuration takes priority over debug source configuration.


Configure the required parameters.


You can further restrict the mirrored subscriber host traffic associated with the subscriber identification string by specifying SAP or SLA-profile criteria. To specify an SLA profile as a match criterion, go to Step 8 .

Note: You can configure parameters in the SAP/Subscriber Host Match Criteria panel or the SLA Profile Match Criteria panel, but you cannot configure parameters in both panels.


To specify a SAP:

  1. Select a SAP on which to mirror subscriber host traffic in the SAP/Subscriber Host Match Criteria panel.

    You can select only dot1q- or QinQ-encapsulated SAPs that have subscriber management enabled.

  2. Configure the parameters in the SAP/Subscriber Host Match Criteria panel to specify the subscriber host match criteria for the SAP.

    Note:

    The NFM-P does not accept the parameter values unless a SAP is specified.

  3. Go to Step 9 .


To specify SLA profile match criteria, select the SLA profile in the SLA Profile Match Criteria panel.


Save the changes and close the forms.
