Terminology
sFlow — An industry standard sampling technology, defined by RFC 3176, used to continuously
monitor traffic flows on all ports providing network-wide visibility into the use of the network.
sFlow agent — A software process that runs as part of the network management software within a
device. The agent packages data into datagrams that are forwarded to a central data collector.
sFlow destination — The central data collector that gathers datagrams from sFlow-enabled switch
ports on the network. The data collector decodes the packet headers and other information to
present detailed Layer 2 to Layer 7 usage statistics.
Viewing SFlow Configuration
The show sflow agent command displays read-only switch agent information. The version information
shows the sFlow MIB support and software versions; the agent address is typically the ip address of
the first vlan configured on the switch.
Figure 3. Viewing sFlow Agent Information
