# Monitoring J-Flow Statistics

This section shows how to clear J-Flow statistics and use the show commands to view J-Flow settings and statistical results.

## Clearing J-Flow Statistics

Use the clear ip flow stats command to clear all entries from all flow caches on the virtual router.

clear ip flow stats

- Use to clear entries from all flow caches on the VR/VRF.
- Example
  `
  host1(config)#clear ip flow stats
  `
- There is no no version.
- See clear ip flow stats.

## J-Flow show Commands

You can monitor the following aspects of J-Flow statistics by using the following commands:

To Display | Command
--- | ---
Main cache flow operational statistics | show ip cache flow
J-Flow sampling state | show ip flow sampling
J-Flow export state and export statistics | show ip flow export

You can use the output filtering feature of the show command to include or exclude lines of output based on a text string that you specify. See Command Line Interface in JUNOSe System Basics Configuration Guide, for details.
