Gerhard,

So that looks more like a Meraki configuration issue. It seems that the Meraki 
is doing sFlow on its own generated sFlow traffic. Basically it sends sFlow 
packets, then the sFlow process samples sFlow packets and, in turn, it triggers 
the generation of additional sFlow packets and so on. This 'amplification' also 
explain why you are seeing a huge amount of 100% sent sFlow traffic. Please 
check that config.

Simone
