If sFlow is configured through SNMP, all controls - except for the Release-button - are disabled to
avoid inadvertent reconfiguration.
The “Release” button allows for releasing the current owner and disable sFlow sampling. The button
is disabled if sFlow is currently unclaimed. If configured through SNMP, the release must be confirmed
(a confirmation request will appear).
