you might be right on that, but how would you know if you don't check... and what about the desktops that are hitting the pcs that would be classified as servers? Shouldn't you check them to verify that they aren't being over subscribed? Or do you just not check because the pcs downstream at the access layer are only doing 10mbit of traffic generation. Things that make you go hmmmmm...
