DESCRIPTION
       You can use the metrics component to modify or display the Global
       Traffic Manager metrics settings.

EXAMPLES
       modify metrics default-probe-limit 10

       Sets the default probe limit for the Global Traffic Manager to 10.

       list metrics all-properties

       Displays all properties of the metrics settings for the Global Traffic
       Manager.

OPTIONS
       default-probe-limit
	    Specifies the number of probe attempts that the system performs
	    before removing the path from the metrics. The default value is
	    12.

       hops-ttl
	    Specifies the number of seconds that the system considers
	    traceroute utility data to be valid for name resolution and load
	    balancing. The default value is 604800. Note that this option must
	    be greater than the hops-timeout option.

       hops-packet-length
	    Specifies the length of packets, in bytes, that the system sends
	    to a local DNS server to determine the path information between
	    the two systems. Valid values are 64 - 500. The default value is
	    64.

       hops-sample-count
	    Specifies the number of packets that the system sends to a local
	    DNS server to determine the path information between those two
	    systems. Valid values are 1 - 10. The default value is 3.

       hops-timeout
	    Specifies the number of seconds that the big3d daemon waits for a
	    probe. Valid values are 1 - 10. The default value is 3.

       inactive-ldns-ttl
	    Specifies the number of seconds that an inactive LDNS remains in
	    the cache. Each time an LDNS makes a request, the clock starts
	    again. Valid values are 60 - 31536000 (1 year). The default value
	    is 2419200 (28 days).

       ldns-update-interval
	    Specifies the number of seconds that a tmm will wait before
	    sending an update for a LDNS which has been accessed. The default
	    value is 20 seconds.

       inactive-paths-ttl
	    Specifies the number of seconds that a path remains in the cache
	    after its last access. Valid values are 60 - 31536000 (1 year).
	    The default value is 604800 (7 days).

       max-synchronous-monitor-requests
	    Specifies how many monitors can attempt to verify the availability
	    of a given resource at the same time. The default value is 20.

       metrics-caching
	    Specifies the interval (in seconds) at which the system dumps path
	    and other metrics data. Valid values are 0 through 604800. The
	    default value is 3600; 0 (zero) turns this feature off.

       metrics-collection-protocols
	    Specifies the protocols that the system uses to collect metrics
	    information relevant to LDNS servers.

       path-ttl
	    Specifies the number of seconds that the system considers path
	    data to be valid for name resolution and load balancing purposes.
	    The default value is 2400. Note that this option must be greater
	    than the paths-retry option and less than or equal to 2419200 (28
	    days).

       paths-retry
	    Specifies the interval (in seconds) at which the system retries
	    the path data. Valid values are 1 - 600 (10 minutes). The default
	    value is 120.
