the analyzer port sends encapsulated traffic, the analyzer traffic has additional headers and therefore longer frame. The MTU must be configured to support the additional length, otherwise, the packet is truncated to the configured MTU.

MLNX-OS supports an sFlow sampling mechanism (agent), which includes collecting traffic samples and data from counters. sampling rate may also be adjust as required.
