Release

The following enhancements were introduced:

  • Analyzer level statistics (TCP, UDP, P2P, HTTP, HTTPS)

  • VPP statistics collection using the CLI configuration

21.25

First introduced.

21.24

Feature Description

The Vector Packet Processing (VPP) metrics help to analyze and debug the VPP offloaded traffic. This feature applies only to platforms that support VPP.

Configuring Metrics Collection

Use the following sample configuration to enable or disable metrics collection from VPP for subscriber and rulebase.


configure 
  active-charging service service_name 
    [ no ] statistics-collection { all | vpp } 
    end

NOTES:

  • all : Configures both Ruledef and VPP statistics collection.

  • vpp : Configures VPP statistics collection.

  • no : Resets the seed-time value to the default value of 0.

  • By default, this CLI is disabled.
