About the Interface Details report

The Interface Details report is a collection of dashboard reports that provide insight into the traffic flowing through a specific interface.

When you first access the Interface Details report, it shows the General view for all traffic on the selected interface. You can refine the report in several ways.

Note: sFlow, NetFlow-Lite, and J-Flow data is sent every x number of packets (configurable on the device), whereas regular NetFlow provides statistics about all of the network traffic. This means that sFlow, NetFlow-Lite, and J-Flow data provides a sampling of network traffic data that is not absolutely accurate, whereas NetFlow provides statistics about all network traffic data so that network traffic data is highly accurate. However, typically sFlow, along with the sample packets, sends accurate total interface traffic.
Data sampling methods may result in Interface Overview and Interface Detail reports that appear to have more or less traffic than is shown in the Flow Monitor Home page source information. This is because the sampled data shown in the Interface Overview and Interface Detail reports are derived the sampled data and the Flow Monitor Home page source information is derived from the total interface traffic data.

For more information on how to refine the low Interface Details report, see Filtering data in a view.

Tip: You can view the Interface Overview report for the selected interface by clicking Interface Overview at the top of the page.
