View statistics for a service function or service chain

You can view statistics about the packets flowing through the service chain (SF). Using either a plain numerical display or a graphical display, you can view:

  • The number of packets/bytes going in a forward direction (both in and out)
  • The number of packets/bytes going in a reverse direction (both in and out)

You can view statistics per SF, per chain, or per hop for a chain.

  1. From the SFC controller menu on the left side of the screen, select Statistics.

  2. Click either Service Functions or Service Function Chains.

    The screen for service functions or service function chains opens.
