About the Flow Monitor: Incoming Interface Traffic report
The Incoming Interface Traffic dashboard report displays the percentage of the total inbound traffic on an interface that is leaving through each of the output interfaces.
Occasionally a misconfiguration can cause a device to send traffic back through the interface where it was received. In Flow Monitor, this is called Bounce traffic. Flow Monitor alerts you to this abnormal traffic pattern by displaying a flag next to the interface(s) where the error is occurring.
Below the chart, a table is provided that includes the number of bytes, packets and flows for each output interface, as well as the percentage of the total inbound traffic leaving through that interface.
