Configure an Analytics Engine and Enabling Application Telemetry Globally
Use this procedure to enable Application Telemetry and configure the device used as either an sFlow Collector or an Application Telemetry Analytics Engine. This device is where the agent sends sFlow datagrams and Application Telemetry packets for analysis.
sFlow supports up to two collectors for each interface slot in the chassis. However, Application Telemetry supports Collector 1 only.
Note
-
You can configure two Collectors, but Application Telemetry uses Collector 1 only. You must configure Collector 1 before you enable Application Telemetry.
-
Before you change or remove Collector 1, you must disable Application Telemetry.
-
By default, Application Telemetry is globally disabled.
Before you begin
-
You must configure the sFlow agent IP address.
-
You must enable sFlow before you can enable Application Telemetry.

Variable Definitions
Use the data in the following table to use the sflow collector command.
Variable |
Value |
---|---|
<1–2> |
Specifies the ID of the collector where you want to send packets for analysis. Application Telemetry uses Collector 1 only. |
owner WORD<1–20> |
Specifies the name of the collector. |
Collector-IP {A.B.C.D.} |
Specifies the IP address of the collector. |
port <1–65535> |
Specifies the destination port. The default port is 6343. Note:
Application Telemetry does not use this parameter. |
timeout <1–65535> |
Specifies the time remaining (in seconds) before the collector is released. The default timeout is 0, which means the timeout is not used and the switch sends data forever. Note:
Application Telemetry does not use this parameter. |
