net traffic

Question

Hi, 
 Could someone put me in right direction? 
 in the network usage log what is the top client and what is the top server? does the top client means the incoming traffice and the top server means uit goinig traffice? 
 this really confuing and we cannot find any documantion on this? 
 is the total traffice that we see in the daily report is outgoing and incoming data? how can we know how much of this data is outgoing or incoming? 
 
 Any hint would be appreciated.

Hi Aresh, 
 Greetings. 
 Top Client will give you report for the total traffic consumed by internal clients through UTM. Alongside, Top Server will give you report for the incoming server traffic. 
 Please note that the labels IN and OUT for traffic may vary depending on the point of view. When running in proxy mode, the client connects to port 8080 on UTM, so data sent by the client (the request) is seen as incoming traffic and the data sent to the client (the response) is seen as outgoing traffic on the internal interface. 
 The total traffic the daily report reflects is the total consumption of data IN and OUT. 
 As of now, there is no provision to check the data consumption individually i.e., IN and OUT separately. 
 Hope that helps:) 
 Thanks

Hi Aresh, 
 Monitored your reports. The graphs in the executive report might vary compared to the reporting data stated in the executive report. Variations might also occur in regard to the inline reports.
