sflow flow max-header
Use sflow flow max-header to set the maximum number of bytes (starting from the packet header)
that flow sampling can copy per packet.
Use undo sflow flow max-header to restore the default.
Syntax
sflow flow max-header length
undo sflow flow max-header
Default
Flow sampling can copy up to 128 bytes of a packet.

Parameters
length: Specifies the maximum number of bytes that can be copied, in the range of 18 to 512. As a
best practice, use the default value.
Examples
# Set the maximum number of bytes to 60 for flow sampling to copy per packet on GigabitEthernet
1/0/1.

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] sflow flow max-header 60
sflow sampling-mode
Use sflow sampling-mode to specify a flow sampling mode.
Use undo sflow sampling-mode to restore the default.
Syntax
sflow sampling-mode determine
undo sflow sampling-mode
Default
Fixed sampling mode is used.

Parameters
determine: Specifies the fixed sampling mode. For example, if the flow sampling interval is set to
4000 (by using the sflow sampling-rate command), the device samples packets as follows:
The device randomly samples a packet, like the tenth packet, from the first 4000 packets.
The next time the device samples the 4010th packet, and so on.
