sFlow Configuration Example

Network requirements

z

Host A and Server are connected to AC through GigabitEthernet 0/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 0/0/2
respectively.

z

Host B works as an sFlow collector with IP address 3.3.3.2 and port number 6343, and is
connected to AC through GigabitEthernet 0/0/3.

z

GigabitEthernet 0/0/3 belongs to VLAN 1, having an IP address of 3.3.3.1.

Run sFlow agent on AC, and enable sFlow on GigabitEthernet 0/0/1 to monitor traffic on this interface.
AC sends sFlow packets through GigabitEthernet 0/0/3 to Host B, which then analyzes the sFlow
packets and displays the results.
