1. A system, comprising: a first device; a second device configured to monitor a plurality of data flows traversing the second device, the second device configured to collect statistics associated with the plurality of data flows, the second device including traffic analysis logic that is configured to augment the plurality of data flows with data including statistical information based on the statistics and address information associated with the first device; wherein the first device is configured to receive the data, the traffic analysis logic being operable to push the statistical information to the first device independently of a real-time request for at least a portion of the statistical information from the first device, wherein the statistical information is a refinement of the statistics to reduce the volume of data received by the first device and to reduce the processing load on the first device, and wherein the traffic analysis logic is configurable based on at least the address information; wherein the second device includes a management port configured to support configuration of portions of the second device other than the traffic analysis logic; the second device includes a data path separate from the management port connected to the first device; and the traffic analysis logic is configurable responsive to the first device through communications traversing the data path; and wherein: the plurality of data flows is a first plurality of data flows; the first plurality of data flows is a subset of a second plurality of data flows traversing the second device; and the second device is configured to identify the first plurality of data flows.
