2-23. sFlow
The sFlow Collector configuration for the switch can be monitored and modified here. The configuration is
divided into two parts: configuration of the sFlow receiver (a.k.a. sFlow collector) and configuration of per-
port flow and counter samplers.
sFlow configuration is not persisted to non-volatile memory, which means that a reboot or master change
will disable sFlow sampling.
sFlow is an industry standard technology for monitoring switched networks through random sampling of
packets on switch ports and time-based sampling of port counters. The sampled packets and counters
(referred to as flow samples and counter samples, respectively) are sent as sFlow UDP datagrams to a
central network traffic monitoring server. This central server is called an sFlow receiver or sFlow collector.

IP Address:
The IP address used as the Agent IP address in sFlow datagrams. It serves as a unique key
that will identify this agent over extended periods of time. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported.
