automatically generate and report a new metric for all traffic to a TCP service
within the mesh.</p><p>Similar to the <a href=/v1.2/docs/tasks/telemetry/metrics/collecting-metrics/>Collecting Metrics and
Logs</a> Task, the new
configuration consisted of <em>instances</em>, a <em>handler</em>, and a <em>rule</em>. Please see
that Task for a complete description of the components of metric collection.</p><p>Metrics collection for TCP services differs only in the limited set of
attributes that are available for use in <em>instances</em>.</p><h3 id=tcp-attributes>TCP attributes</h3><p>Several TCP-specific attributes enable TCP policy and control within Istio.
These attributes are generated by server-side Envoy proxies. They are forwarded to Mixer at connection establishment, and forwarded periodically when connection is alive (periodical report), and forwarded at connection close (final report). The default interval for periodical report is 10 seconds, and it should be at least 1 second. Additionally, context attributes provide the ability to distinguish between <code>http</code> and <code>tcp</code>
protocols within policies.</p><figure style=width:100%><div class=wrapper-with-intrinsic-ratio style=padding-bottom:393.1216931216931%><a data-skipendnotes=true href=/v1.2/docs/tasks/telemetry/metrics/tcp-metrics/./istio-tcp-attribute-flow.svg title="TCP Attribute Flow"><img class=element-to-stretch src=/v1.2/docs/tasks/telemetry/metrics/tcp-metrics/./istio-tcp-attribute-flow.svg alt="Attribute Generation Flow for TCP Services in an Istio Mesh."></a></div><figcaption>TCP Attribute Flow</figcaption></figure><h2 id=cleanup>Cleanup</h2><ul><li><p>Remove the new telemetry configuration:</p><div><a data-skipendnotes=true style=display:none href=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/istio/istio/release-1.2/samples/bookinfo/telemetry/tcp-metrics.yaml>Zip</a><pre><code class=language-bash data-expandlinks=true>$ kubectl delete -f @samples/bookinfo/telemetry/tcp-metrics.yaml@
