show security gtp counters

Syntax

Description

Use this command to display counters that can be used to indicate the number of GPRS tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel counters (allocated and freed), GTP packet counters (received, passed, and dropped), brief message counters (receive, forward, and drop), error counters, request counters, HA counters, and path-rate-limit counters (drop and alarm).

From Junos OS Release 20.4R1 onwards, show security gprs gtp counters is replaced by show security gtp counters.

Options

  • all—Displays all GTP counters.

  • data-packet— Displays GTP-U data packet counters.

  • error—Displays GTP error counters.

  • ha—Displays GTP HA counters.

  • message message-name—Displays GTP message counters.

  • packet—Displays GTP packet counters.

  • request—Displays GTP request counters.

  • tunnel—Displays GTP tunnel counters.

  • path-rate-limit—Displays path-rate-limit counters.

  • rate-limit—Displays rate-limit counters.

Table 1: show security gtp counters all Output Fields

Field Name

Field Description

Tunnel counters

Tunnel counters are used to track the number of tunnels that are created on the device.

There are two entries:

  • Allocated

  • Freed

Active tunnel number = number of allocated counters - number of freed counters

Packet counters

Packet counters indicate the number of GTP packets that are received and processed on the device.

There are three entries:

  • Received–Number of GTP packet messages received.

  • Passed–Number of GTP packet messages passed.

  • Dropped–Number of GTP packet messages dropped because of an error.

Number of received counters = number of dropped counters + number of passed counters

Data-packet counters

GTP-U data packet counters are used to track the number of data packets that are received, passed, dropped, no-tunnel dropped, sequence error dropped, end-user dropped, or dropped otherwise.

Brief message counters

GTP messages counters indicate the number of GTP messages that are received and processed on the device.

There are three entries:

  • Received–Number of GTP messages received.

  • Forwarded–Number of GTP messages forwarded.

  • Dropped–Number of GTP messages dropped because of an error.

Number of received counters = number of dropped counters + number of forward counters

Error counters

Drop reason and drop counters indicate the number of GTP packets that are dropped as a result of an error.

Total error = Sum of all the following errors

Request counters

Request counters indicate the number of GTP request messages that are received and processed on the device. This information can be used for debugging purpose.

HA counters

HA counters indicate the number of messages that are received or sent by the device.

Path-rate-limit counters

Path-rate-limit counters indicate the number of packet data protocol (PDP) create, delete, echo, and other messages that are received and processed on the device after drop-threshold and alarm-threshold are reached.

  • Create Request–Number of create PDP messages.

  • Delete Request–Number of delete PDP messages.

  • Echo Request–Number of PDP echo messages.

  • Others–Control messages other than the above messages.

Drop–Indicate the number of packets dropped.

Alarm–Indicate the number of packets transferred after the alarm threshold is reached.

rate-limit counters

Rate-limit counters indicate the number of drop and alarm packets.

  • Drop indicates the number of messages dropped after reaching the drop threshold.

  • Alarm indicates the number of messages went through after reaching the alarm threshold.
