A data source configured to collect flow samples is called a poller. Use this command to configure a new sFlow sampler instance on an interface or range of interfaces for this data source if rcvr_idx is valid.
| Format | sflow sampler {rcvr-indx | rate sampling-rate | maxheadersize size} |
| Mode | Interface Config |
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Receiver Index | The sFlow Receiver for this sFlow sampler to which flow samples are to be sent. A value of zero (0) means that no receiver is configured, no packets will be sampled. Only active receivers can be set. If a receiver expires, then all samplers associated with the receiver will also expire. Possible values are 1-8. The default is 0. |
| Maxheadersize | The maximum number of bytes that should be copied from the sampler packet. The range is 20-256. The default is 128. When set to zero (0), all the sampler parameters are set to their corresponding default value. |
| Sampling Rate | The statistical sampling rate for packet sampling from this source. A sampling rate of 1 counts all packets. A value of zero (0) disables sampling. A value of N means that out of N incoming packets, 1 packet will be sampled. The range is 1024-65536 and 0. The default is 0. |
