+Print binary sFlow feed to ASCII, or forward it to other collectors.
+
+This tool receives sFlow data, and generates either a simple-to-parse
+tagged-ASCII output, or binary output in tcpdump(1) format. It can
+also generate Cisco NetFlow version 5 datagrams and send them to a
+destination UDP host:port, or forward the original sFlow feed to a
+number of additional collectors.
