Dell S4048T User Manual

Enabling Extended sFlow
Extended sFlow packs additional information in the sFlow datagram depend on the type of sampled packet.
The platform supports extended-switch information processing only.
Extended sFlow packs additional information in the sFlow datagram depending on the type of sampled
packet. You can enable the following options:
• extended-switch — 802.1Q VLAN ID and 802.1p priority information.
• extended-router — Next-hop and source and destination mask length.
• extended-gateway — Source and destination AS number and the BGP next-hop.
NOTE
: The entire AS path is not included. BGP community-list and local preference information are not
included. These fields are assigned default values and are not interpreted by the collector.
• Enable extended sFlow.
sflow [extended-switch] [extended-router] [extended-gateway] enable
By default packing of any of the extended information in the datagram is disabled.
• Confirm that extended information packing is enabled.
