CLI Guide

Usage Information This command changes the sampling rate for an interface. By default, the sampling
rate of an interface is set to the same value as the current global default sampling
rate. If the value you enter is not a correct power of 2, the command generates an
error message with the previous and next power-of-2 value. Select one of these
two numbers and re-enter the command.
