3.12.3 Collector configuration
Global collector parameters, as well as Span and Flow-specific settings can be adjusted under “Configuration→Collector” tab.
- Global collector settings:
→ Top volume prefixes per cycle (collector.export.volume.high.top_n)
→ Minimal traffic volume (collector.export.volume.min)
→ Minimal traffic volume (%) (collector.export.volume.min_pct) - Flow collector settings:
→ UDP port to listen for NetFlow or sFlow packets (collector.flow.listen.nf, collector.flow.listen.sf)
→ Flow sources (collector.flow.sources) - SPAN collector settings:
→ Capture interfaces (collector.span.interfaces)
→ Mindelay algorithm enable/disable (collector.span.min_delay)
→ Mindelay probing queue slots (collector.span.min_delay.probing_queue_size)
The list of prefixes announced by the monitored network can be edited in the same form. Its contents can be also imported from a text file.
See also: collector.ournets.
- Inbound Prefixes collector settings:
→ prefix belonging to the network (inbound.rule.X.prefix),
→ router(s) where announcements are sent (inbound.rule.X.bgp_peer),
→ next hop used by improvements for this prefix (inbound.rule.X.next_hop)
→ an option to instruct IRP whether to fully control the prefix or to only announce improvements when there are any.
→ providers for which this inbound prefix can be optimized (inbound.rule.X.providers). It must be noted that if no provider is selected then the prefix is optimized for all providers. Otherwise, the prefix will be optimized only through selected providers.
→ prefix status as each prefix can be disabled in order to exclude from further inbound optimization (inbound.rule.X.enabled)
