Juniper Networks routers or switches can collect various kinds of data about traffic passing
through the router or switch . You can set up one or more accounting profiles that specify
some common characteristics of this data, including the following:
The fields used in the accounting records
The number of files that the router or switch retains before discarding, and the number
of bytes per file
The period that the system uses to record the data
You configure the profiles and define a unique name for each profile using statements
at the
[edit accounting-options]
interface profiles and filter profiles. You configure interface profiles by including the
statement at the
interface-profile
filter profiles by including the
