>Just my $0.02,
May not be enough money. You present a solution to an unclearly defined
problem. Never fear, the IETF has a packet sampling working group now, but
one vendor has RFC3176 sFlow today (yesterday). I've got sFlow running on
1GbE links today and I'm planning on a 10GbE upgrade next year with sFlow
support for the core. Same product I bought 2 years ago.

List is growing.
You can't make decisions about your network if you don't really know your
network. An sFlow collector will give you accounting and monitoring to take
any action you so desire to fix your problems in real time. Can't wait
until this WG produces a standards based product though. IPFIX was started
after sFlow. IPFIX is short of the mark for L2 networks.
A very happy sFlow (www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3176.txt) user...
