When the Netstream module sends flow information to the NMS, the flow information contains the 16-bit index of an interface. Then, the NMS determines the interface name according to the index. In normal situations, a 16-bit index is allocated to each interface, and the total 65535 interfaces will obtain indexes. If the number of interfaces is more than 65535, the traffic statistics sent to the NMS cannot carry the 16-bit index. As a result, the NMS fails to resolute the interface name according to the index and therefore cannot charge and monitor the network normally.
The interfaces were more than the interface index resources that could be allocated. The index resources were used up.
