NETGEAR M4350-24F4V 24-Port 10G SFP+ Managed AV Network Switch - Manual (Page 873)

Configure sFlow polling and sampling on
an interface
If the switch is configured as an sFlow agent, the switch can do the following:
• Collect statistical packet-based sampling of switched flows and sends them to the
configured receivers. A data source that is configured to collect flow samples is
called a sampler.
• Collect time-based sampling of network interface statistics and send them to the
configured sFlow receivers. A data source configured to collect counter samples is
called a poller.
You can configure sampling and a polling settings on a switch interface. Traffic on the
interface is then sampled and polled and forwarded to the sFlow receiver.
To configure sFlow polling and sampling on an interface:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Log in to the main UI with a web
browser on page 27 and the subsections.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Monitoring> sFlow > Advanced > sFlow Interface Configuration.
The sFlow Interface Configuration page displays.
6. If a stack is configured, select whether to display the physical interfaces for one switch
or for all switches in the stack:
• Unit ID for a stacked switch: The physical interfaces for the switch with the
selected stack unit ID are displayed.
If no switch stack is configured, the only option is unit ID 1.
• All: The physical interfaces for all switches in the stack are displayed.
If no switch stack is configured, the All option does not have any effect.
