Network Traffic

How to create or update Business Services by filtering the Network Traffic or Addresses.

Network Traffic Collection

Network Traffic shows all the traffic captured by sFlow, NetFlow and Promiscuous method. You can create or update Business Services by filtering the Network Traffic or Addresses.

Note: 

  • FireScope system is capable of collecting NetFlow as well as SFlow traffic. The user can choose the collector of their choice and configure it to point to the desired Edge Device.
  • For SFlow traffic collection, we recommend using Host SFlow collector from http://sflow.net/.
  • Network URL’s are only available when Promiscuous Mode has been enabled.
