How to configure sFlow on D-Link switches

These instructions assume:

• The date, time, and time zone are correctly set on the switch.
• You have Telnet or SSH credentials and access to the switch.
• You know the IP address of your Auvik collector.

Access the switch CLI

1. Telnet or SSH into the switch.
2. Enter privileged mode by typing enable and entering your enable password.

Enable sFlow

Run the following command. Replace <AuvikCollectorIP> with the IP address of your Auvik collector. By default, D-link uses port 6343 for sFlow.

enable sflow
create sflow analyzer_server 1 owner analyzer1 timeout infinite collectoraddress <AuvikCollectorIP>
create sflow counter_poller ports all analyzer_server_id 1 interval 60
create sflow flow_sampler ports all analyzer_server_id 1 rate 512

Confirm the settings

Run the following command to confirm the configuration: 

show sflow flow_sampler
show sflow
