Viewing Flow Redirection Statistics

The Flow Redirection page displays the number of control packets sent and received between this appliance and the other peer(s) in the cluster, as well as how much traffic was redirected to and from the other peer(s).

It answers the following questions:

n	What are the mgmt1 IP addresses of the other peers in this cluster?

n	How many control packets were exchanged between this appliance and each of its peers?

n	How many redirected flows does this appliance currently own?

n	How many flows is this appliance currently redirecting to peers?

n	In total, how many packets/bytes have been redirected to/from any given peer?

A Sampling of Results

The Flow Redirection page displays the following statistics:

Section	Field	Definition
Stats	Peer IP	The mgmt1 IP address of a peer appliance in the same cluster as this appliance.
	Hello	Control packets used to keep open the TCP connection between two peers’ mgmt1 cluster interfaces.
	Redirection	Requests to redirect flows
	Tx Msgs	The number of messages transmitted.
	Tx Bytes	The size of the transmitted messages, in bytes.
	Rx Msgs	The number of messages received.
	Rx Bytes	The size of the received messages, in bytes.
Flows Redirected From	Peer	The mgmt1 IP address of a peer appliance in the same cluster as this appliance.
	Flows	The number of current flows redirected from the peer to this appliance.
	Pkts	To date, the total number of packets redirected from the peer to this appliance.
	Bytes	To date, the total number of bytes redirected from the peer to this appliance.
Flows Redirected To	Peer	The mgmt1 IP address of a peer appliance in the same cluster as this appliance.
	Flows	The number of current flows redirected to the peer by this appliance.
	Pkts	To date, the total number of packets redirected to the peer by this appliance.
	Bytes	To date, the total number of bytes redirected to the peer by this appliance.

Across all other reported statistics, only the owner of a flow reports a flow’s traffic statistics.
