+Config Sample actions list
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Configure the sample actions list to be used when sampling a packet by
+rte_flow_action_sample::
+
+ set sample_actions {index} {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
+
+There are multiple global buffers for ``sample_actions``, this command will set
+one internal buffer index by ``{index}``.
+
+In order to use different sample actions list, ``index`` must be specified
+during the flow rule creation::
+
+ testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end actions
+        sample ratio 2 index 2 / end
+
+Otherwise the default index ``0`` is used.
