摘要

Network flow monitoring provides critical information for many network applications, and several approaches have been proposed to address flow monitoring. However they either lack flexibility in adapting to ever-changing network traffic (e.g. NetFlow), or require intensive computing resources (e.g. ANF). In this paper, we propose a Resource-Efficient Flow Monitoring System (called REFMS), which consists of Pre-Sampling module, Sample & Hold module, and Flow Removal module. Our REIMS can improve sampling accuracy and effectively utilize measurement resource with multiple sampling algorithms.
