Can NTA configured to monitor traffic usage for a particular IP block

gugan

Hi All,

Can NTA be configured to monitor traffic usage for a particular IP block ? For example I would to know how much  bandwidth a particular IP range ( i.e  117.53.153.118 - 117.53.153.137 ) has consumed?. I would greatly appreciate your assistance on this issue. Thank you.

 

Regards,

Gugan.

Yes you can. Please go into Settings> NTA Settings> Edit IP Address Groups

 

Check groups to enable monitoring. Checked groups will appear in the Top XX IP Address Group resource.
IP Address groups can also be used to define application in Manage Applications and Service Ports.

Below is from the Admin Guide:

IP Address Groups

Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer allows you to establish IP address groups for selective monitoring of custom categories or segments of your network. The following steps set ranges and descriptions for your network IP addresses so that you can better characterize and assess the NetFlow data that you receive.

If any one of the pre-existing ranges contains the addresses that you want Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer to monitor, check the range, and then click Submit.

If none of the pre-existing ranges contains the addresses that you want Orion NetFlow Traffic Analyzer to monitor, complete either of the following series of steps to define your IP address group:

•	If you want to edit an existing group, check the group, click Edit, define the starting and ending IP addresses in its range, enter a description, and then click Submit.

•	If you want to add a new group, click Add New Group, enter the Start and End of IP address range, enter a Description, and then click Submit.

If you want to delete an existing group, check the group range that you want to delete, and then click Delete.
