Configuring Traffic Monitoring

Network analytics queue monitoring 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. You can use the reports to help troubleshoot problems, make decisions, and adjust resources as needed.

You enable queue monitoring by first defining a resource profile template, and then applying the profile to the system (for a global configuration) or to individual interfaces.

Note: You can configure queue monitoring on physical network interfaces only; logical interfaces and Virtual Chassis physical (VCP) interfaces are not supported.

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

To configure traffic monitoring on a QFX Series standalone switch:

  1. Configure the traffic monitoring polling interval (in seconds) for the system:
    [edit]set services analytics resource system polling-interval traffic-monitoring interval
  2. Configure a resource profile for the system, and enable traffic monitoring in the profile:
    [edit]set services analytics resource-profiles profile-name traffic-monitoring
  3. Apply the resource profile to the system for a global configuration:
    [edit]set services analytics resource system resource-profile profile-name
  4. Configure a resource profile for interfaces, and enable traffic monitoring in the profile:
    [edit]set services analytics resource-profiles profile-name traffic-monitoring

    Note: If a conflict arises between the system and interface configurations, the interface-specific configuration supersedes the global (system) configuration.

  5. Apply the resource profile template to one or more interfaces:
    [edit]set services analytics resource interfaces interface-name resource-profile profile-name
