1. A method for flow monitoring, the method comprising:
receiving first information about flows from a network device measured at a first rate;
determining a first number of flows based on the first information;
receiving second information about flows from the network device measured at a second rate, wherein the first rate is higher than the second rate;
determining a second number of flows based on the second information, wherein the first number of flows is higher than the second number of flows;
determining a third rate based on the first number of flows and the second number of flows, wherein the third rate is higher than the second rate;
transmitting a signal indicative of the third rate to the network device; and
receiving third information about flows from the network device measured at the third rate.
