Flow monitor inconsistencies between interfaces

DanielBarnes over 8 years ago

I was using flow monitor to try and identify traffic going over our internet link.

eth0 is wan, eth1 is lan.

I was monitoring some traffic in flow control,

I opened eth0 in flow control, and then opened eth1.

I viewed some HD youtube videos for about 5 minutes then checked to see if I could find the result.

One interface identifies some traffic as Soundcloud, and the other identifies around the same amount of traffic ~190mb as youtube:

Has anyone else seen this behaviour before? Is it simply the UTM misidentifying the traffic as Soundcloud?

Cheers

I have the same problem. UTM 9 takes Youtube as Soundcloud.

Glad to know I am not alone!
This is just the traffic I have noticed is misidentified, and I havn't looked very hard. What else could also be misidentified?

This issue has prevented our company from using any Application based traffic control and throttling. I don't have enough trust in the Application identification to start limiting and throttling users traffic based on it...

Daniel, most applications are correctly recognized, and avoiding making rules for those that you're not confidant of is easily done.

Hi,

Sounds great that support has a fix to this. As per my observation, there is traffic that is incorrectly recognized as SoundCloud. I want to check what TS steps did support took to resolve the categorization issue. Alongside, I will speak to the development team over this matter.

Thanks
