Configures the sample-rate for a specific interface. The default sample rate based on interface speed is:

• 1-in-1000 for a 1G link
• 1-in-10,000 for a 10G link
• 1-in-40,000 for a 40G link
• 1-in-100,000 for a 100G link

It is recommended not to change the defaults. This command is to be used only in case of exceptions (to set the sample-rate to the nearest power-of-2, if there are hardware restrictions in using the defaults).
