Importing Flow definitions
You can import a flow definition into MAPS for threshold monitoring.
1. Right-click a device in the Product List or Connectivity Map and select Fabric Vision > MAPS >
Configure.
The MAPS Configuration dialog box displays.
2. Select a policy in the list and click Add.
The Add Policy dialog box displays.
3. Click the Traffic / Flows tab.
4. Click Import.
The Import Flow Definitions dialog box displays. The Available Flow list displays all flows
defined on the switch except learning flows for switches running Fabric OS v7.2.0. For Fabric
OS v7.3.0 and later, import and learning flows are supported. Learning flows use an asterisk
(*) for both the source and destination devices which enables the flow monitor to learn all the
source device and destination device pairs passing through the devices using a particular
source port or destination port. Each subflow that is a part of the imported learning flow is
monitored.
5. Select the flow definition you want to import in the Available Flow list and click the right arrow
button.
