You will find there is some discrepancy between the direct result 581, and if you calculate probability size from the packets distribution:

I haven't checked, but this might be a case of different semantics. Where "packets" in the sample distribution is of the entire ip datagram, but the protocol flow summary is of only the payload data.
I have a question, how to get the packets size stat from a GSR? We know dcef is enable default in GSR, can we use dcef to get the stat ?
The flow cache should provide this information on the GSR as well, and is not otherwise dependent on the forwarding path (dCEF).
