Chapter 30 sFlow

Table 97	Advanced Application > sFlow (continued)
LABEL		DESCRIPTION
Collector		Enter the IP address of the sFlow collector.
Address
		Note: You must have the sFlow collector already configured in the sFlow > Collector screen.
		The sFlow collector does not need to be in the same subnet as the Switch, but it must
		be accessible from the Switch.
		Note: Configure UDP port 6343 (the default) on a NAT router to allow port forwarding if the
		collector is behind a NAT router. Configure a firewall rule for UDP port 6343 (the
		default) to allow incoming traffic if the collector is behind a firewall.
Apply		Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
		changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
		save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel		Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.

Click the Collector link in the sFlow screen to display the screen as shown. You can configure up to four sFlow collectors in this screen. You may want to configure more than one collector if the traffic load to be monitored is more than one collector can manage.
