Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques and mechanisms for intelligently sampling packet flows within a network. The techniques enable the sampling of a limited set of packet flows that show greatest amount of information about the network from the packet flows in order to provide the greatest insight on application performance, network packet, and critical events within the network. Additionally, the techniques provide configurable parameters, such that the techniques are customizable for each user's network.
