Configure sFlow Sampling Mode

Configuration Condition

Before configuring the sFlow sampling mode, first complete the following task:

• Create the agent role
• Create the receiver role

Configure sampler Sampling Mode

In the sampler sampling mode, that is interface flow sampling, the switching chip samples the traffic received by the interface at random. After getting the sample packet, first copy the head information of the packet, resolve the copied content, get the desired sample information from it, and at last, encapsulate the sample information and send to the corresponding third-party receiver of the receiver role.

Table 6-4 Configure the interface sampler sampling mode

Configure poller Sampling Mode

The poller sampling mode, that is interface regular polling sampling, is to regularly encapsulate the packet and traffic statistics information on the interface within the period and send to the corresponding third-party receiver of the receiver role.
