Streams tab

The Streams tab/page displays information for all inbound streams and can be used to verify that the Plixer Replicator appliance is successfully receiving streams from exporters.

The list/table shows the following details for each stream:

  • IP address of the source exporter

  • DNS name of the source exporter

  • Timestamp when packets associated with the stream were last received

  • Current status of the stream

  • Total number of packets received as part of the stream (with average rate)

  • Total volume of data received as part of the stream (with average rate)

  • Total number of packets sent with the stream as their source (with average rate)

  • Total volume of data sent with the stream as its source (with average rate)

Any streams that have triggered alarms will be highlighted in red, with the reason indicated in the Status column of the table.

Note

  • Click the icon in the DNS Name column to force a manual resolution of an exporter’s DNS name from its IP address.

  • Use the Alarms Only toggle to view only streams that have triggered alarms.
