View UDP Endpoint Information

Before you begin

Change the VRF instance as required to view UDP endpoint information on a specific VRF instance. Not all parameters are configurable on non-default VRFs.

About this task

Perform this procedure to display local and remote UDP activity.

Since UDP is a protocol used to establish connectionless network sessions, you need to monitor local and remote UDP activity and to know which applications are running over UDP. You can determine which applications are active by checking the port number. Processes are further identified with a UDP session to allow for the multiplexing of a port mapping for UDP.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, expand Configuration > IPv6.
  2. Select TCP/UDP.
  3. Select the UDP Endpoints tab.
