sFlow
This section describes the sFlow feature. sFlow is the industry standard for monitoring high-speed
switched and routed networks. sFlow technology is built into network equipment and gives complete
visibility into network activity, enabling effective management and control of network resources.
Overview
As illustrated in Figure 3-5, the sFlow monitoring system consists of sFlow Agents (embedded in a
switch, router, or standalone probe) and a central sFlow Collector. sFlow Agents use sampling technology
to capture traffic statistics from monitored devices. sFlow datagrams forward sampled traffic statistics to
the sFlow Collector for analysis.
