Enabling the sFlow Agent
Use the SFLOW ENABLE command in the Global Configuration mode to
activate the sFlow agent so that the switch begins to gather packet
samples and packet counters and to transmit the data to the sFlow
collector on your network. Here is the command:
awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# sflow enable
This command assumes that you have already performed these steps:
 Added the IP address of the collector to the sFlow agent with the
SFLOW COLLECTOR IP command.
 Used the SFLOW SAMPLING-RATE and SFLOW POLLING-
INTERVAL IP commands to configure those ports from which
performance data is to be gathered.
 Assigned the switch a management IP address. For instructions,
refer to Chapter 13, “IPv4 and IPv6 Management Addresses” on
page 299.
The switch immediately begins transmitting the packet samples and
packet counters to the collector as soon as you enter the command.
