Sflow Configuration Task - Edge-Core ES4624-SFP Manual

The latest SFLOW protocol presented by Inmon company is the version 5. Since it is
the version 4 which is realized in the RFC3176, version conflict might exist in some case
such as the structure and the packet format. This is because the version 5 has not
become the official protocol, so, in order to be compatible with current applications, we
will continue to follow the RFC3176.
