Configuring sFlow Port Parameters
Use the sFlow Port Configuration page to set the destination parameters for the
sampled data, payload parameters, and sampling interval.
Command Usage
• Port – Choose the port to configure. (Range: 1-28/52; Default: 1)
• Receiver Owner
4
– The name of the receiver. (Range: 1-256 characters;
Default: None)
• Receiver IP Address
4
– IP address of the sFlow Collector.
• Receiver Port
4
– The UDP port on which the sFlow Collector is listening for sFlow
streams. (Range: 0-65534; Default: 6343)
• Time Out – The time that the sFlow process will continuously send samples to the
Collector before resetting all sFlow port parameters (receiver owner, time out, max
header size, max datagram size, and flow interval). A time out value of 0 seconds
indicates no time out. (Range: 0-10000000 seconds; Default: 0 seconds)
The check box is cleared by the system if flow sampling is currently under way.
To change the timeout, mark the check box, enter a timeout value, and click Apply.
• Max Header Size – Maximum size of the sFlow datagram header.
(Range: 64-256 bytes; Default: 128 bytes)
• Max Datagram Size – Maximum size of the sFlow datagram payload.
(Range: 200-1500 bytes; Default: 1400 bytes)
• Flow Interval – The interval at which the sFlow process adds counter values to the
sample datagram. An interval of 0 seconds effectively disables this feature.
(Range: 0-10000000 seconds; Default: 0 seconds)
4. Sampling must be disabled by setting the time out to 0 before these fields can be configured.
