Active Flow Monitoring System Requirements

To implement active flow monitoring, your system must meet these minimum requirements:

  • Junos 10.4 or later for peer AS billing support on flow monitoring version 9

  • Junos 9.3R2 or later for IPv6 support on flow monitoring version 9

  • Junos 9.3R2 or later for multiple flows for flow monitoring version 9

  • Junos OS Release 9.0 or later for version 9 flow aggregation to multiple flow servers

  • Junos OS Release 8.5 or later for active flow monitoring support on MultiServices 500 PICs

  • Junos OS Release 8.3 or later for flow monitoring version 9 support, MPLS support, and active flow monitoring support on MultiServices 100 and 400 PICs

  • Junos OS Release 8.2 or later for M120 router support and for flow monitoring version 5 and 8 support on MultiServices 100 and 400 PICs

  • Junos OS Release 8.1 or later for the flow-tap services application on Adaptive Services II PICs installed in M7i, M10i, M20, M40e, M320, and T Series routers

  • Junos OS Release 7.4 or later for port mirroring of IPv6 packets

  • Junos OS Release 7.3 or later for active flow monitoring on Adaptive Services II PICs installed in TX Matrix platforms

  • Junos OS Release 7.0 or later for active flow monitoring on Adaptive Services II PICs installed in T Series and M320 routers

  • Junos OS Release 6.0 or later for the Adaptive Services PIC

  • Junos OS Release 5.7 or later for the automatic insertion of AS numbers and SNMP index values for input and output interfaces into records, port mirroring to multiple ports, and discard accounting

  • Junos OS Release 5.6 or later for the Monitoring Services PIC

  • M5, M7i, M10, M10i, M20, M40e, M120, M160, M320, or T Series router with an Internet Processor II ASIC or later

  • Type 1 enhanced FPCs

  • Two M Series or T Series PICs of your choice: One to receive incoming traffic and one to forward outgoing traffic (the second PIC or PIM is not necessary for discard accounting)

  • Export PICs to connect to the collector or packet analyzer

  • Tunnel Services PIC (required for multiple port mirroring or mo- interface load balancing)

  • Flow collector version 5, 8, or 9

  • ES PIC and packet analyzers (optional)
