Collector conguration
Congure the IPv4 or IPv6 address for the sFlow collector. When you congure the collector, enter a valid and reachable IPv4 or IPv6
address. You can congure a maximum of two sFlow collectors. If you specify two collectors, samples are sent to both. The agent IP
address must be the same for both the collectors.
Collector conguration for default VRF
• Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address for the sFlow collector, IPv4 or IPv6 address for the agent, UDP collector port number, and maximum
datagram size in CONFIGURATION mode.
sflow collector {ip-address | ipv6-address} agent-addr {ip-address | ipv6-address} [collector-
port-number
]
The no form of the command disables sFlow collectors in CONFIGURATION mode.
Collector conguration for nondefault VRF
If you congure a collector for a nondefault VRF, create the VRF rst. If you do not specify the VRF instance, the system congures the
collector for the default VRF instance.
The following are the steps to congure sFlow collector with a nondefault VRF:
1 Create a nondefault VRF instance.
OS10(config)# ip vrf RED
2 Enable the sFlow feature.
OS10(config)# sflow enable
3 Assign an IP address to an interface which you can use as the sFlow agent and add it to the VRF instance.
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# sflow enable
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ip vrf forwarding RED
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ip address 1.1.1.1/24
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# no shutdown
4 Assign an IP address to an interface through which the sFlow collector is reachable and add it to the VRF instance.
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# interface ethernet 1/1/2
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# sflow enable
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# ip vrf forwarding RED
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# ip address 4.4.4.4/24
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# no shutdown
5 Enter the IP addresses of the sFlow collector and the agent and assign them to the VRF instance.
OS10(config)# sflow collector 4.4.4.1 agent-addr 1.1.1.1 vrf RED
