Top Endpoints reveals top endpoint devices with the greatest traffic volumes for the selected interval.

Note: The same bytes can be counted twice where a byte total is noted arriving from a sender and the same bytes are counted when relayed to the receiver.

Understand column data

The default view of each report contains a grid with the following columns:

  • Endpoint. Name of the source or destination endpoint device.
  • Location. Field composed of top combined Cities with State and Country identifiers included.
  • Incoming Bytes. Traffic volume received from the endpoint.
  • Outgoing Bytes. Total bytes transmitted to the endpoint.
    • Bytes. Combined (incoming/outgoing) number of bytes transferred. (Use Report Settings

      Sort by option to rank the list by packet or flow count, not bytes.)

    Red ( ) indicates fraction received. Blue ( ) indicates fraction sent. (Mouse hover to display in/out summary.)

  • Bit Rate. Average bit rate, in total bits per second (bps).
  • Byte Percentage. Percentage of the total traffic.

To display Flow and Packet measurements, click a column heading ( ) for column selection list ( ). You can also include:

  • IP address. Endpoint's IP address.
  • Hostname. Endpoint's hostname.
  • Previous Hostnames. Top endpoint's previous hostnames.
  • Domain. Endpoint's domain.
  • City. Top endpoint city.
  • Subdivision. Subdivision for the endpoint's city.
  • Country. Country for the endpoint's city.
  • Latitude. Degrees latitude associated with the endpoint's city.
  • Longitude. Degrees longitude associated with the endpoint's city.
  • Flows. Flows received from the Flow Sources (switch or router NetFlow observation points).
