Understanding Network Analytics Configuration and Status

The network analytics feature provides visibility into the performance and behavior of the data center infrastructure. You can enable network analytics by configuring traffic and queue statistics monitoring.

Note: This topic describes the configuration and status output from Junos OS Release 13.2X50-D15 and 13.2X51-D10 only.

If you had enabled traffic or queue monitoring, you can issue the show analytics configuration and show analytics status commands to view the global interface configuration and status and that of specific interfaces. The output that is displayed depends on your configuration at the global interface and specific interface levels. For example:

  • A global interface configuration (for all interfaces) to disable monitoring supersedes the configuration to enable it on an interface.
  • The interface configuration to enable or disable monitoring supersedes the global interface configuration, unless monitoring had been disabled globally for all interfaces.
  • If there is no configuration, whether for all interfaces or a specific interface, monitoring is disabled by default (see Table 1).

Table 1 describes the correlation between the user configuration and the settings that are displayed.
