Hi!.
I am trying to define a sFLOW sensor using PRTG version 19.1.48.2891 and a core switch Aruba Model 8400. sFLOW Tester receive samples ok, with some errors show in "sample format": 1694 samples from a total of 74519 samples.
But sflow sensor does not receive any data
What could be wrong?
Regards!

Here I show OS config of Aruba Switch:

Hello Luis,

Thank you for your contact.

Please pause the sFlow sensor within PRTG. This is necessary to prevent the Port from being used while running the sFlow Tester. Afterwards, re-run the sFlow Tester on the same Probe (either Local Probe or Remote Probe) that has the affected sensor, configure the Tester properly and upload the result as screenshot to this thread.

Best regards,
Sebastian
