Summary

InfluxDB's sFlow Monitoring Template provides visibility into network usage and active routes of high-speed networks, enabling effective control and management of network usage. This template uses packet sampling technology to provide continuous statistics on any protocol, allowing for a deeper look at network traffic patterns in an easy-to-visualize way. It can be used to find bandwidth hogs, detect and resolve network performance issues, track response time and availability of critical assets, and monitor network bandwidth performance. The template is easily shared and importable into InfluxDB with a single command, offering better visibility into "top talkers" on the network.
