Usage
Information
This command changes the sampling rate for an interface. By default, the sampling rate of an interface is
set to the same value as the current global default sampling rate if port is operationally down, otherwise
sampling rate changes based on port line speed. 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 number and re-enter the command.
