Limitations and Precautions for Intelligent Traffic Analysis

Hardware Requirements

Only the USG6615E/6625E and USG6635E/6655E support intelligent traffic analysis.

License Requirements

The intelligent traffic analysis function is not under license control.

Limitations

  • On the live network, link redundancy may exist in scenarios, such as ECMP.
  • The device exports unidirectional flow entries.
  • Statistics cannot be exported through the management network port, VLAN ports, or subinterfaces.
  • The device does not support traffic analysis for jumbo frames. It promises to supports packets whose length does not exceed the maximum transmission unit (MTU) configured on an interface.
  • Packets discarded by a traffic policy cannot be obtained for analysis.
  • Traffic analysis is not supported in scenarios relevant to path changes caused by link switchover, dynamic load balancing (DLB), or per-packet load balancing when the related flow entries are still valid.
