Usage
Information
You can configure up to two sFlow collectors (IPv4 or IPv6). If two collectors are configured, traffic
samples are sent to both.
The sFlow agent address is carried in a field in SFlow packets and is used by the collector to identify the
sFlow agent.
In sFlow, the agent address is a single invariant IPv4 or IPv6 address used to identify the agent to
the collector. It is usually assigned the address of a loopback interface on the agent, which provides
invariance. The agent address is carried as a field in the payload of the sFlow packets.
As part of the sFlow-MIB, if the SNMP request originates from a configured collector, Dell EMC
Networking OS returns the corresponding configured agent IP in the MIB requests. Dell EMC Networking
OS checks to ensure that two entries are not configured for the same collector IP with a different agent
IP. Should that happen, Dell EMC Networking OS generates the following error: %Error: Different
agent-addr attempted for an existing collector.
Example
DellEMC(conf)# sflow collector 10.1.1.25 agent-addr 10.1.1.10 vrf
management
sflow enable (Global)
Enable sFlow globally.
