Use this command if you created a flow using the -noactivate operand or if none of the features are activated for the flow. Note that the flows are not enforced until they are active and the flows cannot be activated without configuring the features. If one or more of the flow parameters are not supported by any specified feature, the flow will not be activated and the operation will fail with an appropriate error message. Operands The --activate command has the following operands: flow_name Specifies the name of the flow on which the specified features must be activated. Specify "all" to activate the specified features for all flows. The following predefined flows are supported: sys_mon_all_fports Used for automatically learning and monitoring the traffic passing through all the online F_Ports in the switch. By default, this flow is in the deactivated state. This flow is supported only with the monitor feature. sys_analytics_vtap Used to mirror frames to a port on a remote domain, which is in IO Analyzer Mode.
