Troubleshooting Sflow Configuration; The Remote Sflow Collector Cannot Receive Sflow Packets - HP MSR Series Configuration Manual

# Configure parameters for an sFlow collector: specify sFlow collector ID 2, IP address 3.3.3.2,
the default port number, and description of netserver for the sFlow collector.
[Device] sflow collector 2 ip 3.3.3.2 description netserver
2. Configure counter sampling:
# Set the counter sampling interval to 120 seconds.
[Device] interface ethernet 1/1
[Device-Ethernet1/1] sflow counter interval 120
# Specify sFlow collector 2 for counter sampling.
[Device-Ethernet1/1] sflow counter collector 2
3. Configure flow sampling:
# Set the flow sampling mode and the sampling interval.
[Device-Ethernet1/1] sflow sampling-mode determine
[Device-Ethernet1/1] sflow sampling-rate 4000
# Specify sFlow collector 2 for flow sampling.
[Device-Ethernet1/1] sflow flow collector 2
# Display the sFlow configuration and operation information.
