Allowable characters for LAG names
When creating a LAG name, you can use spaces in a file or subdirectory name if you enclose the
name in double quotes. For example, to specify a subdirectory name that contains spaces, enter a
string such as the following: "a long subdirectory name". The maximum length for a string is 64
characters.
The following characters are valid in file names:
• All upper and lowercase letters
• All digits
Any of the following special characters are valid:
• $
• %
• '
• -
• _
• .
• @
• ~
• `
• !
• (
• )
• {
• }
• ^
• #
• &
Enabling sFlow forwarding on a port in a LAG
You can enable sFlow forwarding on an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-forwarding
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.
device(config)# lag blue static
device(config-lag-blue)# deploy
device(config-lag-blue)# sflow forwarding ethernet 1/3/1
Syntax: [no] sflow forwarding { ethernet stack/slot/port | port-name name }
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate stack/slot/port variable to specify a Ethernet port within
the LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.
Use the port-name option with the appropriate name variable to specify a named port within the LAG
that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.
For a keep-alive LAG, sFlow can be enabled only at the interface level and not at a lag context. To
configure sFLow for an interface belonging to the keep-alive lag, configure directly under the interface.
Brocade(config-lag-test)#interface e 7/8
Brocade(config-if-e1000-7/8)#sflow forwarding
Brocade(config-if-e1000-7/8)#
