Flow Port

Use this dialog to create a new pattern for Flow Monitor to use to interpret traffic on your network.

Enter or select the appropriate information in the following fields.

Port. The port number; enter a port number if applicable.
Application. Enter a name for the traffic that matches the port and protocols selected. This name is used by all application reports (such as Top Sender Applications and Top Receiver Applications).
Do not monitor this port. If selected, data about traffic transmitted over this port is not classified by application.
Monitor the following protocols on this port.
- TCP. Select this option to classify traffic that uses the TCP protocol over this port as the application listed in Application.
- UDP. Select this option to classify traffic that uses the UDP protocol over this port as the application listed in Application.
- SCTP. Select this option to classify traffic that uses the SCTP protocol over this port as the application listed in Application.
- DCCP. Select this option to classify traffic that uses the DCCP protocol over this port as the application listed in Application.

Note: You can only create one pattern for each port number. As such, you cannot categorize TCP data over a port as a different application than UDP data over the same port.
