Usage Guidelines
• It is necessary to execute the 
 command to make a Loopback0 IP address as the fixed 
primary address of the switch, in order to avoid interface changes, which might need the collector soft-
ware to be restarted for it to communicate using the new agent IP address. Normally, the primary IP 
address could change depending on the IP interface going up/down. Therefore, the sFlow agent always 
needs to send a fixed IP address in the datagram.
• The loopback address should be an IP interface configured on the switch.

-> ip interface Loopback0 address 198.206.181.100
