Sflow Enable (Global) - Dell C9000 Series Reference Manual

Version
6.2.1.1
Usage Information You can configure up to two sFlow collectors (IPv4 or IPv6). If two collectors are
configured, traffic samples are sent to both.
The sFlow agent address is carried in a field in SFlow packets and is used by the
collector to identify the sFlow agent.
In sFlow, the agent address is a single invariant IPv4 or IPv6 address used to identify the
agent to the collector. It is usually assigned the address of a loopback interface on the
agent, which provides invariance. The agent address is carried as a field in the payload
of the sFlow packets.
As part of the sFlow-MIB, if the SNMP request originates from a configured collector,
Dell Networking OS returns the corresponding configured agent IP in the MIB requests.
Dell Networking OS checks to ensure that two entries are not configured for the same
collector IP with a different agent IP. Should that happen, Dell Networking OS
generates the following error: %Error: Different agent-addr attempted for
an existing collector.
Use this command in Configuration Terminal Batch mode to configure the sFlow
collectors in a dual-homing setup.
