flex-flow-sizing
Syntax
flex-flow-sizing;
Hierarchy Level
[edit chassis fpc slot-number inline-services]
Description
Configure support for the service creation of flows for inline services sampling. This configuration results in a first-come-first-serve creation of flows. Whichever flow comes first, that is allowed to occupy the flow-table if there is space in the table. Otherwise, the flow is dropped and an error count is created.
You cannot configure the explicit flow-table-sizes because flex-flow-sizing and explicit flow-table-sizes are mutually exclusive.
You need not perform fpc reboot to change from flex to per family configuration.
Options
Default: 1K flows for IPv6 and VPLS flows each.
Range: 15 through 256K flows for IPv4.
Required Privilege Level
interface—To view this statement in the configuration.
interface-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
Release Information
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 15.1F5.
As a workaround for flex-flow-sizing on MX204 router for releases earlier than
Junos OS Release 17.4R2 or Junos OS Release 18R3, replace the
flex-flow-sizing statement with the
flow-table-size statement configuration and reload the box.
Configure the flow-table-size statement value within a range of
1 through 15. If the flex-flow-sizing statement is configured,
deactivate or delete the same. For example:
flow-table-size {
ipv4-flow-table-size 10;
ipv6-flow-table-size 4;
}
