sflow configuration

sflow in HP A5120 and HP 5500 Switches.


Today i am going to show you how to enable sflow in HP switches

Lets start !

login to the HP switch and configure the following things as listed.

  • sflow agent 
  • sflow collector
  • sflow flow collector
  • sflow sampling-rate
  • sflow counter collector
Just like this:

[nightread3r]sflow agent ip 192.168.51.98 (Self ip or switch ip)
[nightread3r]sflow collector 1 ip 10.0.0.10 (PRTG server ip) description "CLI collector"

[nightread3r]int GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
[nightread3r-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]sflow sampling-rate 1000
[nightread3r-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]sflow flow collector 1
[nightread3r-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]sflow counter collector 1

and now go to the PRTG server and add the sensor named sflow, like this:





Now wait for a minute so that  sflow sensor will collect the the sflow data after that you can open that:







So you can view the all traffic which have been collected by the flow. now enjoy the sflow traffic.

Comware was designed for Internet service providers (ISPs). Many features and functions—such as security and Quality of Service (QoS)—are multi-tiered to  support the different needs of multiple entities accessing the same switch.
