Interface Traffic
This workspace report shows the incoming and outgoing traffic transmitted over the selected interface for the chosen time period.
Interface traffic is graphed in bytes over time. The 95th percentile for both inbound and outbound interface traffic is graphed for the chosen time period.
You can easily lower the time graph scale on the configuration dialog to see the lower level traffic that is more difficult to see at the default scale setting.
Note: sFlow data is sent every x number of packets (configurable on the sFlow device), whereas typically all NetFlow data is collected and monitored. This means that sFlow data provides a sampling of network traffic data, whereas Flow data provides all network traffic data.
sFlow 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.
