Chapter 2 - General Purpose Command Set Sflowagent (Sflow Agent)
Alvarion BreezeNET B130/B300 GigE 27 Operational User Manual
flow -agent=IPaddress - sets agent's own address (device)
sflow -maxpacket=size - sets maximum size of a Sflow-packet in bytes. 1472
bytes by default. Upper bound is limited by hardware and operational system
capabilities. In case of its exceeding packet size will be decreased to acceptable
value.
sflow -interval=number - time in seconds equal to interval with which
statistics is delivered from instance. Increasing of this parameter leads to
increasing in overall system efficiency but in case of unexpected network
activity splash data could be lost. 15 seconds by default.
sflow -datagrams=number - maximum number of datagrams between times
of receiving statistics from instance. The increase of this parameter leads to
the decrease in datagram average size and increases in theoretical number of
delivered statistics data. Reduces the load on the CPU but in the same time
reduces overall system efficiency. However, reducing of system efficiency
doesn't happen with low traffic. It is recommended to increase this parameter
when decreasing maxpacket parameter and/or when increasing interval
parameter. 100 by default. Maximum flow: sflow= datagrams/interval*
maxpacket, (Bytes/sec).
sflow -rawheader={on|off} - sends original ipV4 headers in spite of statistics
data (off by default). Used for compliance with traffic monitoring programs.
Sflow -debug={on|off} - puts statistics information to log.
Example:
ipstat enable full detail 3000 # starting the process of
gathering statistics
sflow add ipstat # adding gathering component
sflow -collector=1.2.3.4 start # starting process of
processing the statistics
