Usage
Information
The syntax of such parameter files is (
address
)
value
where
address
is the decimal address
of the DPI control register, and
value
is the hexadecimal parameter to be loaded.
shows the parameters to which each address is mapped.

Address
Corresponding Parameter
Address 20
(Master FPGA)
This address is mapped to the parameter Flow timeout (measured in
multiples of 0.86 seconds). This parameter controls how quickly the
stateful packet analysis can garbage-collect previous states. Smaller
values increase the number of concurrent flows that can be tracked. The
default value is 16.
Address 16
(Master FPGA)
This address is mapped to the parameter Flow length (measured in
packets). This parameter controls the maximum number of packets in a
flow that are considered for capturing. Typical values range from 6 to16.
