Scalability questions to consider:
Number of devices
Number of flows per second
Storage retention Period
Local attached storage and not Network attached
Notes:
Larger then 200k flows per second requires distributed netflow servers
The CPU and RAM needs to be reserved at top priority (all the cores and memory)
Bandwidth between devices and Arbitrators needs to capable of data flows
