Configuring traffic ordering
You can do the following to configure traffic ordering on the Web interface:
• Setting the traffic ordering interval
• Specifying the traffic ordering mode
• Displaying internal interface tr
aff
ic ordering statistics
• Displaying external interface traff
ic ordering statistics
Overview
When multiple packet flows (classified by their source addresses) are received or sent by a device,
you can configure IP traffic ordering on the device to collect statistics of the flows in the
inbound/outbound direction, and then rank the statistics. The network administrator can use the
traffic ordering statistics to analyze the network usage for network management.
You can specify an interface as an external or internal interface to collect traffic statistics:
• An internal interface collects both inbound and outbound traffic statistics, including the
following:
Total traffic statistics
Total inbound/outbound traffic statistics
Inbound/outbound TCP packet statistics
Inbound/outbound UDP packet statistics
Inbound/outbound ICMP packet statistics
• An external interface collects only the total inbound traffic statistics.
