Filtering by traffic direction

By default, the Interface Detail report displays information about inbound traffic to the selected interface.

The router graphic to the right of the Traffic direction list illustrates the direction traffic is moving in relation to the router.

In the graphic above, the arrow is pointing to the router, illustrating that traffic is moving toward the router, and is therefore inbound.

To filter report data by traffic direction:

1. At the top of the report, select Traffic direction. A list of available traffic directions appears.
2. Select a traffic direction.
   • Inbound. Select this option to show only data that is being sent to the interface.
   • Outbound. Select this option to show only data that is being sent from the interface.
   • Inbound and Outbound. Select this option to show both inbound and outbound traffic for the interface.
   • Bounce. Select this option to see traffic that routed into and out of the same interface. In some cases, this may represent a router misconfiguration.
3. After you select a traffic direction, the report refreshes showing only data from traffic that matches your selection.
