Configuring the sFlow protocol globally
31
To configure sFlow globally, perform the following steps.
1. Issue an <edit-config> RPC to configure the <sflow> node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-sflow namespace.
2. Under the <sflow> node, include the following elements.
a. Include the empty <enable> leaf element to enable the sFlow protocol globally.
b. In the <polling-interval> element, set the maximum number of seconds between
successive samples of counters to be sent to the collector.
The valid range is 1 through 165535. The default value is 20.
c. In the <sample-rate> element, set the number of packets to be skipped before the next
sample is taken.
The valid range is 2 through 16777215. The default value is 32768.
d. Include the <collector> node element.
3. Under the <collector> node, include the following elements.
a. In the <collector-ip-address> leaf element, specify the IP address of the collector.
b. Optional: In the <collector-port-number> element, specify the UDP port number on the
collector.
The default value is 6343.
The following example enables sFlow globally, designates 102.10.128.176 as the sFlow
collector, sets the polling interval to 35, and the sample rate to 4096.
