Step Command Remarks
4. Enable flow sampling and
specify the number of
packets out of which flow
sampling samples a packet
on the interface.
sflow sampling-rate
rate
By default, no flow sampling rate
is configured.
5. (Optional.) Set the maximum
number of bytes (starting
from the packet header) that
flow sampling can copy per
packet.
sflow flow max-header
length
The default setting is 128 bytes.
As a best practice, use the default
setting.
6. Specify the sFlow collector
for flow sampling.
sflow flow collector
collector-id
By default, no sFlow collector is
specified for flow sampling.
Configuring counter sampling
Perform this task to configure counter sampling on an Ethernet interface. The sFlow agent performs
the following tasks:
1. Periodically collects the counter information on that interface.
2. Encapsulates the counter information into sFlow packets.
3. Encapsulates the sFlow packets in the UDP packets and sends the UDP packets to the
specified sFlow collector.
To configure counter sampling:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.

2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view.

3. Enable counter sampling
and set the counter sampling
interval.
sflow counter interval
interval-time
By default, counter sampling is
disabled.
4. Specify the sFlow collector
for counter sampling.
sflow counter collector
collector-id
By default, no sFlow collector is
specified for counter sampling.
Displaying and maintaining sFlow
