Abstract
Methods and system for supporting multiple management interfaces using a network analytics engine. The network analytics engine can run on a core switch for performing data collection and monitoring of network traffic through the switch. The switch can receive a first list including a first set of network packet parameters for monitoring network traffic using certain monitoring criteria. Then, the switch can receive a second list including a second set of network packet parameters for monitoring network traffic in accordance using different monitoring criteria. The switch can generate a concatenated list including the first list and the single list to form a single set of packet parameters. Concatenation may be consistent with a determined sequential order and priorities assigned to the lists. The switch can be programmed with the concatenated list such that network monitoring is accomplished using both monitoring criteria, while only implemented a single concatenated list.
