network.

Platforms Supported

Usage Guidelines
• It is necessary to execute the ip interface command to make a loopback0 IP address as the fixed
primary address of the switch, in order to avoid interface changes, which might need the collector soft-
ware to be restarted for it to communicate using the new agent IP address. Normally, the primary IP
address could change depending on the IP interface going up/down. Therefore, the sFlow agent always
needs to send a fixed IP address in the datagram.
• The loopback address should be an IP interface configured on the switch.
Examples
-> ip interface loopback0 address 198.206.181.100
-> show sflow agent
Agent Version = 1.3; Alcatel-Lucent; 6.1.1
Agent IP = 198.206.181.100
