Configuration procedure

  1. Configure the IP addresses and subnet masks for interfaces, as shown in Figure 91. (Details not shown.)

  2. Configure the sFlow agent and configure information about the sFlow collector:

    # Configure the IP address for the sFlow agent.

    <Device> system-view
    [Device] sflow agent ip 3.3.3.1
    

    # Configure information about the sFlow collector. Specify the sFlow collector ID as 1, IP address as 3.3.3.2, port number as 6343 (default), and description as netserver.

    [Device] sflow collector 1 ip 3.3.3.2 description netserver
    
  3. Configure counter sampling:

    # Enable counter sampling and set the counter sampling interval to 120 seconds on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

    [Device] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
    [Device-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow counter interval 120
    

    # Specify sFlow collector 1 for counter sampling.

    [Device-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow counter collector 1
    
  4. Configure flow sampling:

    # Enable flow sampling and set the flow sampling mode to random and sampling interval to 32768.

    [Device-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow sampling-mode random
    [Device-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow sampling-rate 32768
    

    # Specify sFlow collector 1 for flow sampling.

    [Device-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow flow collector 1
