Telemetry profiles

Telemetry profiles determine which types of data are collected and parameters that govern the data collection.

Note

Note

For MPLS telemetry-profiles ( SLX 9540 and SLX 9640 only), refer to the "MPLS traffic statistics data streaming" section of the Extreme SLX-OS MPLS Configuration Guide.
Profiles contain the following elements:

The following telemetry profile types and profiles are supported:

interface

Of the interface profile-type, the only profile supported is default_interface_statistics. This profile tracks data related to the physical interface. You need to specify monitored interfaces and can modify the default streaming interval.

The fields supported by default for this profile are as follows:
  • In/Out packets
  • In/Out unicast packets
  • In/Out broadcast packets
  • In/Out multicast packets
  • In/Out packets per second
  • In/Out octets
  • In/Out errors
  • In/Out CRC errors
  • In/Out discards

system-utilization

Of the system-utilization profile-type, the only profile supported is default_system_utilization_statistics. This profile tracks system-related data. You can modify the default streaming interval.

The fields supported by default for this profile are as follows:
  • Total system memory
  • Total used memory
  • Total free memory
  • Cached memory
  • Buffers
  • Total swap memory
  • Total free swap memory
  • Total used swap memory
  • User process
  • System process
  • Niced process
  • In/Out wait
  • Hw interrupt
  • Sw interrupt
  • Idle State
  • Steal time
  • Uptime

Queue profiles

Note

Note

Queue profiles are supported only on the SLX 9540 and SLX 9640 devices.

Of the queue profile-type, the only profile supported is default_queue_statistics. This profile tracks data related to the queue. You need to specify monitored interfaces and can modify the default streaming interval.

Of the enhanced-queue-discard-pkts profile-type, the only profile supported is enhanced-queue-discard-pkts. This profile tracks data related to discarded packets. You need to specify monitored interfaces and can modify the default streaming interval.

Of the enhanced-queue-max-queue-depth profile-type, the only profile supported is default_enhanced_queue_max_queue_depth_statistics. This profile tracks data related to maximum queue depth. You need to specify monitored interfaces and can modify the default streaming interval.

The following table summarizes profile support for queue data.

Table 1. Profile support for queue data
Profile Description
default_enhanced_queue_discard_pkts_statistics Captures summary of 32 queues having the most number of packets discarded, in descending order of packet discards observed. Indexed by interface (slot/port). Data stream contains:
  • Slot-id
  • Device-id (~Ifindex)
  • Queue-id
  • Discard Packet Counts
default_enhanced_queue_max_queue_depth_statistics Captures summary of 32 queues reaching maximum max-queue-size, in descending order. Data stream contains:
  • Slot-id
  • Device-id (~Ifindex)
  • Queue-id
  • Max-Queue-Depth
default_queue_statistics Captures all queue statistics per specified interface. Data stream contains:
  • Slot-id
  • Device-id (~Ifindex)
  • Queue-id
  • EnQ Pkt Count
  • EnQ Byte Count
  • Discard Pkt Count
  • Discard Byte Count
  • Current Queue Size
  • Max Queue Depth SIze
