Information
You can specify up to 2 sFlow collectors. If 2 collectors are specified, the samples are sent to both.
In sFlow the agent address is a single invariant IPv4 or IPv6 addressed used to identify the agent to the
collector. It is frequently assigned the address of a loopback interface on the agent, which provides
invariance. The agent address is carried as a field in the payload of the sFlow packets.
As part of the sFlow-MIB, if the SNMP request originates from a configured collector, FTOS will
return the corresponding configured agent IP in MIB requests. FTOS checks to ensure that two entries
are not configured for the same collector IP with a different agent IP. Should that happen, FTOS
generates the following error:
%Error: Different agent-addr attempted for an existing collector
