The MIB module for managing Cisco medianet flow metadata.
Metadata, in the simplest form, is data that qualifies
other data. Flow metadata is data that describes a flow
in the network. Metadata plays an important role in providing
a framework, that makes data from one component available to
another component on the same network element as well as
across other network elements.
MIB Table Overview:
===================
This MIB consists of two tables:
1) cfmMetadataFlowTable
2) cfmMetadataFlowAttrTable
cfmMetadataFlowTable provides the details about the six tuple
which can uniquely identify a network traffic flow.
cfmMetadataFlowAttrTable will specify flow attributes carried
in the metadata flow. Flow attribute values are
represented in 'Type-Value' format.
cfmMetadataFlowAttrType - Represent the type of flow attribute.
cfmMetadataFlowAttrValue - Represent corresponding flow
attribute value.
cfmMetadataFlowTable and cfmMetadataFlowAttrTable are linked
together using flow ID which will map respective metadata flow
attributes with the corresponding flow key. |
