Creating a FC Ping flow definition
You can create a flow definition based on FC ping data. For more information about trace route and
ping, refer to
“Tracing FC routes”
on page 1714".
1. Select a row on the FC Ping tab in the Trace Route Summary dialog box.
2. Click Add Flow.
The Add Flow Definition dialog box displays with fields and options populated based on the
selected row:
•
Target Switch — Switch for source WWN
•
Source Device — Source ID
•
Destination Device — Destination ID
•
Direction — Bidirectional
3. Complete the flow definition using one of the following procedures:
•
“Creating a Flow Monitor flow definition”
•
“Creating a Flow Generator flow definition”
•
“Creating a Flow Mirror flow definition”
Port connectivity integration with Flow Vision
You can create a flow definition based on port connectivity data. For more information about port
connectivity, refer to
“Viewing port connectivity”
on page 701".
