Available Reports
There are several reports available in the left-hand tree view in the Flow Reports dialog. They are grouped by type. Clicking the “+” icon next to a report type will expand it and show the available reports.
• Interface Bandwidth – report showing interface bandwidth information in either time-series or aggregation format. Default is Time-series and Outbound.
• Top Analysis – lists all flow data for a given device and flow technology type sorted by time.
• Address Reports
• Top Conversations – counts total flows, input bytes, input bit rate, output bytes and output bit rate for a given source and destination IP address pair. Use the drop-down to select between Time Series or Aggregation.
• Bidirectional Source/Destination Pair – counts flow data between an IP address pair by sorting the address. Use the Filter drop-down to choose among Inbound, Outbound or Inbound and Outbound. o Default direction: Outbound
• Source or Destination Address – aggregates flow data regardless if the IP address is a source address or destination address. This report is useful for to determine which endpoints are sending/receiving the most data.
NOTE: In the time series report, flows will be double-counted–the amount of traffic coming and going will always be counted.
• Default direction: Inbound and Outbound
• Address Pair – counts flow data across a directed IP address pair: source (the first IP address) to a destination (the second IP address). o Default direction: Outbound • Destination Address – shows flows based on destination IP address.
• Default direction: Outbound
• Source Address – shows flows based on source IP address.
• Default direction: Inbound
• Destination Address Popularity – shows flow counts and number of unique IP connections for each destination IP address.
• Default direction: Outbound
• Source Address Popularity – shows flow counts and number of unique IP connections for each source IP address.
• Default direction: Inbound
• Site Traffic – shows bit rates and flow counts for each user-defined site and site IP range. Sites without a site IP range will show up as an Unknown site.
• Default direction: Inbound and Outbound
• Destination Site Traffic – shows bit rates and flow counts for each user-defined destination site and site IP range. Sites without a site IP range will show up as an Unknown site.
• Default direction: Outbound
• Source Site Traffic – shows bit rates and flow counts for each user-defined source site and site IP range. Sites without a site IP range will show up as an Unknown site.
• Default direction: Inbound
