Reporting Traffic
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Under :menuselection:`Reporting --> Traffic` you will find a traffic monitor which show the current amount of
|
|
data flowing through your firewall, measured in bps (bits per second).

The top area of the screen shows an overview of all network adapters for both in- and outgoing traffic.
|
|
|
|
The graph below shows the top consumers over the same timespan, when you point to a dot it will show you the measured
|
|
bandwith for the selected host (the color matches the interface).

Top talkers
|
|
...............................
|
|
|
|
Although the graphical overview also shows the most active clients on the network, sometimes it is more convenient
|
|
to see the list of addresses and their current activity in a grid type overview.
|
|
This is where the "Top talkers" tab comes into play, the information is quite comparable to what a command line tool as
|
|
:code:`iftop` would display.
|
|
|
|
When opening this tab you will be presented with the most active addresses, including the amount of traffic
|
|
passed when measured and the last time traffic was seen from or to that address.
|
|
|
|
Every time the graph is updated, the grid will also be populated with new information.
