NetFlow Health Dashboard
Obtain a complete picture of the top devices and interfaces that generate maximum traffic and use the network bandwidth through NetFlow analysis. This will give you a thorough understanding of the traffic pattern in your network and the interfaces that carry maximum traffic.
You have to first add your devices and configure them to export flows to Site24x7. Then, view key performance metrics. After which you can use the Health Dashboard to understand the resources that consume traffic.
NetFlow Health Dashboard uses
Using the Health Dashboard, you can:
- Identify the top devices that generate higher volumes of traffic.
- Identify the interfaces that utilize more bandwidth and optimize them.
- Spot the top interfaces by in and out traffic, which will help channelize the flow among other interfaces that carry minimum loads.
- Reduce workloads, thereby fixing network lag.
- Plan resource allocation across devices and interfaces.
Viewing the Health Dashboard
- Log in to your Site24x7 account.
- Navigate to Network > NetFlow > Health Dashboard.
