Configuring Flow Exports on Extreme Switches

For NetFlow analysis, you need to configure your devices to export flows to Site24x7 On-Premise Poller, which is the NetFlow collector. The On-Premise Poller will be listening to the particular port to receive flows. Learn how to find the port number of your On-Premise Poller.

NetFlow export configuration

Configure switches from Extreme Networks to export NetFlow using the following commands:

set netflow export-interval 1
set netflow export-destination {NETFLOW_SERVER_IP} {NETFLOW_SERVER_LISTENER_PORT}
set netflow cache enable
set netflow export-version 9
set netflow template refresh-rate 600 timeout 1

Enter global configuration mode on the router or Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC), and issue the following commands for each interface on which you want to enable flow:

set netflow port {INTERFACE_NAME} enable both

sFlow export configuration

Configure switches from Extreme Networks to export sFlow using the following commands:

enable sflow
configure sflow agent {LOOPBACK_INTERFACE_NAME}
configure sflow collector {NETFLOW_SERVER_IP} port {NETFLOW_SERVER_LISTENER_PORT}
configure sflow sample-rate 512
configure sflow poll-interval 60
enable sflow backoff-threshold
configure sflow backoff-threshold 500
enable sflow ports all
