11.4.1 Example for Configuring sFlow

Networking Requirements
Traffic between Network1 and Network2 is exchanged through an sFlow agent. The
maintenance personnel analyze network traffic including the traffic volume and service types
using sFlow to learn about the network performance and adjust network configurations.
The maintenance personnel need to monitor the traffic on GigabitEthernet1/0/2 and device
running to locate unexpected traffic and ensure normal network operation.
You can configure the Switch as an sFlow agent and enable sFlow (including flow sampling and
counter sampling) on GigabitEthernet1/0/2 so that the Switch can monitor the network traffic
on GigabitEthernet1/0/2. The sFlow agent then encapsulates traffic statistics into sFlow packets
and sends sFlow packets from GigabitEthernet1/0/1 to the sFlow collector. The sFlow collector
displays the network traffic statistics in a report based on the information in the received sFlow
packets.

Run the display sflow [ slot slot-id ] command to view the sFlow configuration on a
specified LPU.
Run the display sflow statistics [ slot slot-id | interface interface-type interface-number ]
command to view sFlow statistics.
