sFlow Configuration

set sflow receiver maxdatagram

Parameters

 

 

 

 

 

index

Index number in the sFlow Receivers Table for the receiver/Collector

 

 

being configured. The index can range from 1 to 8.

 

 

 

 

ip ipaddr

The IP address of the receiver/Collector being configured. An IP

 

 

address of 0.0.0.0 means that no sample datagrams will be sent to the

 

 

Collector.

 

 

 

Defaults

The default IP address is 0.0.0.0.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

In order for an sFlow Collector to be assigned to receive sample datagrams from the sFlow Agent on the switch, an entry for that Collector must be configured in the switch’s sFlow Receivers Table. An entry must contain an owner identity string, a non‐zero timeout value, and the IP address of the Collector. Configure the owner identity string and timeout value with the set sflow receiver owner command.

Sample datagrams will not be sent to a Collector whose entry in the sFlow Receivers Table has an IP address of 0.0.0.0.

Example

This example configures an IP address of 10.10.10.10 to index entry 1.

C3(su)->set sflow receiver 1 ip 10.10.10.10

set sflow receiver maxdatagram

Use this command to set the maximum number of data bytes that can be sent in a single sample datagram.

Syntax

set sflow receiver index maxdatagram bytes

Parameters

index

Index number in the sFlow Receivers Table for the receiver/Collector

 

being configured. The index can range from 1 to 8.

 

 

maxdatagram bytes

Specifies the maximum number of data bytes that can be sent in a single

 

sample datagram. This size should be set to avoid fragmentation of the

 

sFlow datagrams.

 

The value of bytes can range from 200 to 9116. The default is 1400.

 

 

Defaults

Default maximum datagram size is 1400 bytes.
