Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.3 for EX Series switches.
Set the ratio of the number of packets to be sampled in sFlow network traffic monitoring.

is sampled.
If no sample rate is configured for a particular interface, the switch samples at the rate
configured for the global sFlow configuration. If no global rate is configured, the switch
samples 1 in 2000 packets.
