In some cases, you may prefer to track a range of IP addresses as belonging to a different domain, top level domain, or country than the IP addresses resolve to. For example, internal IP addresses do not usually have host names registered on a domain name server, so Flow Monitor cannot automatically determine their domains, top level domains, or countries.
To overcome this limitation, Flow Monitor lets you use Groups to override the domain, top level domain, and country of ranges of IP addresses so that each group can be tracked as a whole. This allows you to easily track sections of your internal network so that you can view reports by divisions, departments, or other groupings.
Tip: After you configure a group, you can use that group's name to filter reports to show only the traffic sent to or received by devices that belong to the group.
To create or edit a group:
- or -
Select a group, then click Edit. The Flow Group dialog appears.
