Usage
Information
You can configure up to two sFlow collectors (IPv4 or IPv6). If two collectors are
configured, traffic samples are sent to both.
The sFlow agent address is carried in a field in SFlow packets and is used by the
collector to identify the sFlow agent.
In sFlow, the agent address is a single invariant IPv4 or IPv6 address used to identify
the agent to the collector. It is usually assigned the address of a loopback interface
on the agent, which provides invariance. The agent address is carried as a field in
the payload of the sFlow packets.
As part of the sFlow-MIB, if the SNMP request originates from a configured
collector, the system returns the corresponding configured agent IP in the MIB
requests. The system checks to ensure that two entries are not configured for the
same collector IP with a different agent IP. Should that happen, the system
generates the following error: %Error: Different agent-addr attempted
for an existing collector.
