Powerful Performance, Limitless Scale
Collect, organize, and act on massive volumes of high-velocity data. Any data is more valuable when you think of it as time series data. with InfluxDB, the #1 time series platform built to scale with Telegraf.

sFlow (aka "sampled flow") is an industry-standard for packet export at Layer 2 of the OSI model. It provides a means for exporting truncated packets, together with interface counters for the purpose of monitoring network devices including routers, switches, host devices, and wireless access points.
The sFlow Telegraf Plugin allows you to collect the following metrics:
- tags:
- agent_address
- source_id_type
- source_id_index
- input_ifindex
- output_ifindex
- sample_direction
- header_protocol
- ether_type
- src_ip (
- src_port
- src_port_name
- src_mac
- src_vlan
- src_priority
- src_mask_len
- dst_ip
- dst_port
- dst_port_name
- dst_mac
- dst_vlan
- dst_priority
- dst_mask_len
- next_hop
- ip_version
- ip_protocol
- ip_dscp
- ip_ecn
- tcp_urgent_pointer
- fields/values:
