Hello Satish,

We have users doing 20+ Gbps with sFlow using the combination of nProbe + ntopng. sFlow is a sampling technology so, assuming sampling rates are configured opportunely, you won't have any issue.

See https://blog.sflow.com/2009/06/sampling-rates.html for recommended sampling rates.

For a guide on how to setup the collection using nProbe and ntopng see this blog post: https://www.ntop.org/nprobe/sflow-collection-and-analysis-with-nprobe-and-ntopng/
