NTA on your demo site

Hi,

It looks like one of the demo devices on NTA site is HP ProCurve 4000M (according to description), however, HP does not report this device as sFlow supported. Does anyone know if that device support sFlow?

Thanks

That's a good question and the first time anyone asked about that. Let me do a little research.

chopperpl good call. I haven't done a re-discovery on that node in some time, and it is or has been swapped from a 2900 to a 2800, (and probibly before that the 4000). I've updated it's name and caption in Orion and the description has been updated from the MIB: "ProCurve J4904A Switch 2848, revision I.08.105, ROM I.08.07 (/sw/code/build/mako(ts_08_5))".

Thanks!

Thanks for correction, but we would like to know if 4000 unit was fully functional via sFlow. I know it is not officialy supported by HP, but it is OS driven device, and vendors usually include "non-supported" features with newer OS releases, for example cisco's IOS... I had evaluated your NTA with HP ProCurve 2610 last month, and I could not get it to work with NTA 3.0. 2610 does support sFlow v5 according to HP's website.

Thanks

I'm ore of a software guy than hardware so I spoke with one of the lab guys and here's what he said

The 2610 switch should be really similar to one of my 2848's and it works with sflow but it’s been added onto the OS. It can only be configured through snmp and is not in the cli. If you lose power the configuration is not saved. Heres an example config:

setmib sFlowRcvrAddress.1 -o 0A6E421B (ip in hex format)
setmib sFlowRcvrPort.1 -i 2055
setmib sFlowRcvrOwner.1 -D net sFlowRcvrTimeout.1 -i 100000000
setmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.14706.1.1.5.1.4.11.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.1.1 -i 37 (sample rate)
setmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.14706.1.1.5.1.3.11.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.1.1 -i 1 (enable sflow)
setmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.14706.1.1.6.1.4.11.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.53.1 -i 8 (polling interval)
setmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.14706.1.1.6.1.3.11.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.53.1 -i 1 (enable polling)

I hope that helps. Was there anything else on Thwack about configuring sFlow on the 2610?
