PM Statistics Collection Overview
PM Statistics Collection Overview
A PM statistics collection first gathers statistics from all the attributes associated with all the instances of an
entity in the PM system. It then exports the statistical data in the binary file format to a TFTP server. For
example, a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) statistics collection
gathers statistical data from all the attributes associated with all MPLS LDP sessions on the router.
This table lists the entities and the associated instances in the PM system.

PM Statistics Collection Templates
PM statistics collections are configured through PM statistics collection templates. A PM statistics collection
template contains the entity, the sample interval, and the number of sampling operations to be performed
before exporting the data to a TFTP server. When a PM statistics collection template is enabled, the PM
statistics collection gathers statistics for all attributes from all instances associated with the entity configured
in the template.
