Actually, there are a number of open-source tools which you can use to
get started on Linux or FreeBSD or what-have-you - see Robert
Galloway's excellent NetFlow HOW-TO:

and take a look at Stager:

All,
I'm looking for a way to determine the type of traffic and the amounts
of each Flow (SIP, DIP, Sport, DPort).
When my internet traffic or WAN traffic hits 99%, I want to be able to
identify the cause. Right now, it's a total uneducated guess.
Requirements:
1) Identify traffic flows
2) Flow Kbps
3) Preferably use a Windows Server for collection and reporting
4) Prefer Trending
5) Easy ramp up (trying to avoid needing to learn a whole no
discipline)
I'm not very familiar with NetFlow, but it looks like it needs a
Solaris
Data Collector.
Equipment will range from 6500, 4500, 3745, 7206, etc.
Thanks in advance,
