I wouldn't say that 10k users is really a high-load situation. :-)
However, what you're asking for is possible. Maybe the layer-2 switch to
which your server is connected allows to configure a "mirror port", i.e.
a port that will receive a copy of all packets going into and out of the
SER machine. Then you can connect the logging machine to the mirror
port.

Alternatively, you can use a wiretap, i.e. a device which is inserted
into the cable between the SER machine and the switch, and provides
equivalent functionality to a mirror port. Such devices are commercially
available.

Hope that helps,
Jan
