Log::IPFIXInformationElement::DataType

Introduced : BIG-IP_v9.0
A list of IPFIX IE data types. The IPFIX Information model [RFC5102] has defined a constrained set of data types for IEs to facilitate implementation.

Value

Description

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_UNKNOWN

0

The data type is unknown (or unsupported by iControl).

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_OCTETARRAY

1

Represents a finite-length string of octets.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_UNSIGNED8

2

A non-negative integer value in the range of 0 to 255.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_UNSIGNED16

3

A non-negative integer value in the range of 0 to 65535.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_UNSIGNED32

4

A non-negative integer value in the range of 0 to 4294967295.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_UNSIGNED64

5

A non-negative integer value in the range of 0 to 18446744073709551615.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_SIGNED8

6

An integer value in the range of -127 to 128.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_SIGNED16

7

An integer value in the range of -32768 to 32767.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_SIGNED32

8

An integer value in the range of -2147483648 to 2147483647.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_SIGNED64

9

An integer value in the range of -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT32

10

Corresponds to an IEEE single-precision 32-bit floating point type as defined in IEEE.754.1985.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT64

11

Corresponds to an IEEE double-precision 64-bit floating point type as defined in IEEE.754.1985.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_BOOLEAN

12

Represents a binary value. The only allowed values are “true” and “false”.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_MACADDRESS

13

Represents a string of 6 octets.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_STRING

14

The type “string” represents a finite-length string of valid characters from the Unicode character encoding set ISO.10646-1.1993. Unicode allows for ASCII ISO.646.1991 and many other international character sets to be used.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_DATETIMESECONDS

15

The type “dateTimeSeconds” represents a time value in units of seconds based on coordinated universal time (UTC). The choice of an epoch, for example, 00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970, is left to corresponding encoding specifications for this type, for example, the IPFIX protocol specification. Leap seconds are excluded. Note that transformation of values might be required between different encodings if different epoch values are used.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_DATETIMEMILLISECONDS

16

The type “dateTimeMilliseconds” represents a time value in units of seconds based on coordinated universal time (UTC). The choice of an epoch, for example, 00:00 UTC, January 1,1970, is left to corresponding encoding specifications for this type, for example, the IPFIX protocol specification. Leap seconds are excluded. Note that transformation of values might be required between different encodings if different epoch values are used.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_DATETIMEMICROSECONDS

17

The type “dateTimeMicroseconds” represents a time value in units of seconds based on coordinated universal time (UTC). The choice of an epoch, for example, 00:00 UTC, January 1,1970, is left to corresponding encoding specifications for this type, for example, the IPFIX protocol specification. Leap seconds are excluded. Note that transformation of values might be required between different encodings if different epoch values are used.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_DATETIMENANOSECONDS

18

The type “dateTimeNanoseconds” represents a time value in units of seconds based on coordinated universal time (UTC). The choice of an epoch, for example, 00:00 UTC, January 1,1970, is left to corresponding encoding specifications for this type, for example, the IPFIX protocol specification. Leap seconds are excluded. Note that transformation of values might be required between different encodings if different epoch values are used.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_IPV4ADDRESS

19

Represents a value of an IPv4 address.

IPFIX_DATA_TYPE_IPV6ADDRESS

20

Represents a value of an IPv6 address. @Introduced BIG-IP_v11.6.0
