Top Ports

The Top Ports dashboard report displays the top TCP or UDP ports used the most. Port usage data can be used to determine if new or unapproved applications are in use, and can be used to assist in port to application mapping that generates the Top Applications report. You can choose to display and sort sender traffic by bytes, packets, or flows using the report settings dialog. Providing alternate sorting methods allows you to monitor and identify hosts that are the largest consumers of interface resources other than bandwidth.

Note: When ports in a flow are not configured in any application, the port number saved is 0. A second record is created in the Unclassified table which contains the initial flow source and destination ports.

To display Flow and Packet measurements, click a column heading () for column selection list (). You can also include:
