Can you verify that you are receiving performance metrics using the following command on your gmond server? tcpdump -p -s 0 -w - udp port 6343 | sflowtool
The firewall on your windows server, every firewall in the path to the bsd collector, and the firewall on the bsd collector itself must be configured to allow UDP port 6343 traffic to pass. The above command will let you verify that the data is at least making it to your server. Remember that tcpdump catches packets before an local firewall rules are applied, so you still need to check your local configuration even if the command shows that sFlow metrics are being received. You can download sflowtool from the following URL, you need a recent version to be able to decode all the host performance metrics: http://www.inmon.com/technology/sflowTools.php On Thu, Apr 5, 2012 at 12:32 AM, Burton, Steven <sbur...@shepherd-construction.co.uk> wrote: > Bernard, > > Yes.
