Usage
Information
Sample-rate is the average number of packets skipped before the sample is taken.
This command changes the global default sampling rate. You can configure an
interface to use a different sampling rate than the global sampling rate. If the value
entered is not a correct power of 2, the command generates an error message
with the previous and next power of 2 value. Select one of these two packet
numbers and re-enter the command.
