Response Description

List of QNI stacks. Each stack contains the following fields:
  • stack_id - Long - The ID of the QNI stack.
  • hosts - List<Host> - The list of the QNI managed hosts in the stack.
  • name - String - The name of the QNI stack.
  • ports_type - enum - Port configuration type for the QNI stack. The possible values are:
    • IN_4
    • IN_2_OUT_2
    • IN_1_OUT_1
    • IN_1_OUT_3
    • IN_3_OUT_1
  • inspection_level - Optional - Enumeration - The depth of content inspection. The possible values are:
    • BASIC - Lowest level of inspection. Flows are detected by 5-tuple, and the number of bytes and packets that are flowing in each direction are counted.
    • ENRICHED - Each flow is identified and inspected by one of the protocol or domain inspectors. The inspection can generate many kinds of attributes.
    • ADVANCED - The highest level of inspection. It does everything that the Enriched level does, but it also scans and inspects the content of the files that it finds.
    • DEFAULT - Indicates that the QNI host is configured to use the globally-set inspection level.
  • raw_payload - Optional - Long - The maximum amount of data (Bytes) that the QFlow Collector captures and retains in the flow payload. The possible values are:
    • -1: The QNI host is set to use the globally-set raw payload setting
    • 0: Turn off the payload
    • 1 - 32768: Number of bytes
