Top Cities report reveals geographic locations of devices sending and receiving the most traffic for the selected interval. The initial report view is organized by city, but you can include columns such as country, geo coordinates, and more.

Geographic information can be useful when tracking the origins of network traffic. For example, if your company has a website, you can detect the locations of the persons and businesses that are visiting your website by viewing the report.

Understanding location data

Public IP addresses. For public IPs (such as IP addresses outside your firewall, LAN, or enterprise boundaries) by default uses the location data provided by regional internet registries (RIRs), which is built into for the source and destination addresses. Typically, the location is a metropolitan area region, such as a town. You can also associate ranges of IP addresses with a location using the NTA IP Groups Library.

Private IP addresses. For IP addresses inside your firewall beginning with 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x, it is best practice to associate location information with an IP Group using the NTA IP Groups Library.
