the ones that are useful for scaling percentages of interface traffic
to non-scaled (100%) interface traffic. e.g. ifInOctets/ifOutOctets
or ifHCInOctets/ifHCOutOctets.

if netflow tells you that during time period T a% of the octets went to
flow X with Y as an outbound interface and snmp tells you during time T
that interface Y did Z octets of outbound traffic...

during time T, flow X sent a*Z octets of traffic out interface Y.

now rinse lather repeat for all flow and interfaces.

this is a task best automated.
