Application Intelligence—Rules and Notes

Keep in mind the following rules and notes when working with the Application Intelligence solution:

■

Whenever you perform a backup and restore operation, you must create a backup of both the device and GigaVUE-FM and then restore the backed-up data on both as well.

■

Application Intelligence supports processing asymmetric (unidirectional) and symmetric (bidirectional) traffic. However, its recommended to process symmetric traffic to get the best results

■

It takes 7 minutes for the Application Filtering Intelligence and Application Metadata Intelligence statistics to be populated in the GigaVUE-FM GUI.

■

When both the AMI and AFI licenses are installed on Gen 2 cards, the non-5-tuple packets will be dropped, and the packets will not pass to the AMI application for attribute extraction.

■

Application Filtering Intelligence License is an optional choice for Application Metadata Intelligence, but AFI with "No-Rule-Match" pass will be enabled by default for AMI.

■

The patten matching (regex) rule and application filter rule cannot be used together in the same second-level map.

■

Application Intelligence does not detect or classify ARP requests for both Gen 2 and Gen 3 devices, resulting in the dropping of packets that do not meet an APF match.

■

The maximum number of user defined application that can be configured is 120 per GigaVUE‑FM. These applications can be spread across one or more application intelligence sessions.

■

The maximum number of rules that can be created per application is 8.

■

The maximum number of protocols that can be configured per rule is 3.
