Configuring a Remote Collector for Streaming Analytics Data

The network analytics feature provides visibility into the performance and behavior of the data center infrastructure. This feature collects data from the switch, analyzes the data using sophisticated algorithms, and captures the results in reports. Network administrators can use the reports to help troubleshoot problems, make decisions, and adjust resources as needed.

You can configure an export profile to define the stream format and type of data, and one or more remote servers (collectors) to receive streaming network analytics data.

Note: This procedure requires Junos OS Release 13.2X51-D15 to be installed on your device.

To configure a collector for receiving streamed analytics data:

  1. Create an export profile and specify the stream format:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name stream-format format
  2. Configure the export profile to include interface information:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name interface information
  3. Configure the export profile to include interface queue statistics:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name interface statistics queue
  4. Configure the export profile to include interface traffic statistics:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name interface statistics traffic
  5. Configure the export profile to include interface status link information:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name interface status link
  6. Configure the export profile to include system information:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name system information
  7. Configure the export profile to include system queue status:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name system status queue
  8. Configure the export profile to include system traffic status:
    [edit]set services analytics export-profiles profile-name system status traffic
  9. Configure the transport protocol for the collector addresses and apply the export profile:
    [edit]set services analytics collector address ip-address port port transport protocol export-profile profile-nameset services analytics collector address ip-address port port transport protocol export-profile profile-name

    Note: If you configure the tcp or udp option for the JSON, CSV, and TSV formats, you must also set up the TCP or UDP client software on the remote collector to process records that are separated by the newline character (\n) on the remote server.

    If you configure the tcp or udp option for the GPB format, you must also set up the TCP or UDP build streaming server using the analytics.proto file.
