Top Receiver TLDs
Top Receiver TLDs report reveals top level domains (TLD) (the "root" domain name such as.com
, .edu
, or .us
) associated with received traffic. The traffic displayed for each TLD is the sum of the traffic received by each device on that TLD.
In most cases, the TLD for a device is the same as the country that is listed in the Top Sender and Receiver Countries dashboard reports. However, in the case of the TLD, the country is where the domain name was obtained, and not necessarily where the host is located.
