Configuring an Interface-Specific Counter for VPLS

When you configure a firewall filter for VPLS and apply it to multiple interfaces, you can specify individual counters specific to each interface. This allows you to collect separate statistics on the traffic transiting each interface.

To generate an interface-specific counter for VPLS, you configure the interface-specific statement. A separate instantiation of the filter is generated. This filter instance has a different name (based on the interface name) and collects statistics on the interface specified only.

To configure interface-specific counters, include the interface-specific statement at the [edit firewall family vpls filter filter-name] hierarchy level:



[edit firewall family vpls filter filter-name]
interface-specific;

Note: The counter name is restricted to 24 bytes. If the renamed counter exceeds this maximum length, it might be rejected.

For more information on the interface-specific statement and an example of how to configure it, see the JUNOS Policy Framework Configuration Guide.
