Detailed Description

This structure defines the information related to sampling.

In case the sampling is requested, the capturing device should read only a subset of the packets coming from the source. The returned packets depend on the sampling parameters.

Warning:

The sampling process is applied after the filtering process. In other words, packets are filtered first, then the sampling process selects a subset of the 'filtered' packets and it returns them to the caller.
