Numbers of flows supported

On chassis-based platforms, Flow Vision supports a maximum of 512 user-defined flows plus an
additional 512 learned flows and predefined flows. On fixed-port platforms, Flow Vision supports a
maximum of 128 user-defined flows plus an additional 128 learned flows and predefined flows.
However, there is a combined limit for all features of 64 static flows and learning flows (whether active
or inactive) for any one port, and a maximum of 64 learned flows per feature per port. This means (as
an example) that two different learning flows on a given port can each have 64 learned flows.

Beyond these limits, there are limits for each individual feature, as described in the following table. In
addition, refer to the individual features for other feature-specific restrictions.
