Verifying the configuration with show commands

To verify that your configuration is correct, use these commands on the monitoring station that is configured for active flow monitoring.

Most active flow monitoring operational mode commands contain equivalent output information to the following passive flow monitoring commands:
show services accounting errors = show passive-monitoring error
show services accounting flow = show passive-monitoring flow
show services accounting memory = show passive-monitoring memory
show services accounting status = show passive-monitoring status
show services accounting usage = show passive-monitoring usage
The active flow monitoring commands can be used with most active flow monitoring applications, including sampling, discard accounting, port mirroring, and multiple port mirroring. The following command shows the output of the show commands that are used with the configuration example:
