Sampling is the normal mode of flow telemetry generation used by large network operators, so it's utility is pretty well-established. Did you configure the collection/analysis software so that it knows the sampling ratio from this exporter, & are you sure that the traffic in question was traversing the interfaces on which NetFlow is enabled in the appropriate direction?
