Daily and or Weekly Total Bandwidth Traffic Usage Report

My boss wants to know if we need to modify our commodity internet access bandwidth. I see canned reports for top 100 Apps or top 10 domains etc. How do I create a report for total bandwidth consumption on a daily or weekly basis? Could it be graphed out with a nice hourly graphical representation?

Thanks!

Hi nikkormat42‌

I am not sure of a way to do this directly in SolarWinds products but one option could be to use a tool like LANGuardian to gather data via deep packet inspection. Reports can then be generated to display hourly and\or weekly traffic totals. You can also integrate this data inside your SolarWinds views. Example below

Hope this helps,

You can use Top XX Protocols chart set to show top 100 (typically no more than 20 protocols are used), and set it to area chart + time period of your preference.
