Ingress means that packets are captured as they are received on a physical or virtual bridge ports. Patch ports are ignored. In stand alone mode you typically define a single bridge. However, OpenStack defines a pair of bridges (br-in and br-ex) and to get full coverage, you need to enable sFlo

Re: [ovs-discuss] Sflow Sampling in openvswitch

2014-07-23 Thread Neil McKee
The whole v-switch is modeled as one sFlow data source. To drive that packets are sampled on ingress at all ports except virtual patch ports between bridges. You can still extract per-port stats because the ingress and egress ports are included in the output. Does this answer your question? Nei

Yes, setting the sampling-rate to 1-in-1 will give you every packet header, along with the attendant meta-data. Useful for testing, even if you would never use it in production. Neil -- Neil McKee InMon Corp. http://www.inmon.com On Sun, Feb 9, 2014 at 7:54 PM, Weiyu Liu wrote: > Hey,

Hey, all. I am wondering if openVswitch supports sFlow unsampling. Or will setting the sampling parameter "sampling" in the ovs-vsctl command to 1 let the sflow agent get every packet through the monitored interface? I will really appreciate if you can give me some suggestion.
