Configuring for Network Management Applications
Using SNMP Tools To Manage the Switch
The show sflow agent command displays read-only switch agent information.
The version information shows the sFlow version, MIB support and software
versions; the agent address is typically the ip address of the first vlan config-
ured on the switch.

Note the following details:
■ Destination Address remains blank unless it has been configured.
■ Datagrams Sent shows the number of datagrams sent by the switch
agent to the management station since the switch agent was last
enabled.
■ Timeout displays the number of seconds remaining before the switch
agent will automatically disable sFlow (this is set by the management
station and decrements with time).
■ Max Datagram Size shows the currently set value (typically a
default value, but this can also be set by the management station).
