Good day all,
So I am fairly new to using Solarwinds since I started with a new company. I have a Brocade Switch and on it I have configured SFlow. When I run a show sflow command I get the following output (addresses changed to protect the innocent )
SSH@MyDevice#show sflow
sFlow version: 5
sFlow services are enabled.
sFlow agent IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
2 collector destinations configured:
Collector IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, UDP 6343
Collector IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, UDP 2055
Polling interval is 20 seconds.
Configured default sampling rate: 1 per 2048 packets.
Actual default sampling rate: 1 per 2048 packets.
The maximum sFlow sample size: 128.
sFlow exporting cpu-traffic is disabled.
12202490 UDP packets exported
15433597 sFlow samples collected.
sFlow ports: ethe 14 ethe 23 to 24
Port Sampling Rates
-------------------
Port=14, configured rate=2048, actual rate=2048
Port=23, configured rate=2048, actual rate=2048
Port=24, configured rate=2048, actual rate=2048
I have also added a screen capture of what I am seeing in NetFlow for this device and I am just trying to understand where the collection is happening from. So from the above output, I only have sflow forwarding on 3 ports and that is true. But when I look in NetfFlow I am seeing information from many more ports and not sure I understand why and would like any assistance in better understanding this.
Thanks for any assistance
Wally
