[c-nsp] Netflow/Sflow for "irrelevant" traffic?

So just for a refresher if you are sampling lets say at 1:500 and lets say 1 byte goes through an interface that is not intended to produce an export?

The exporting only happens if the amount of data is over a certain threshold? Does that threshold vary?

I think what you’re looking for is gear which supports 1:1 flow telemetry at the interface speeds/densities you require.
