Traffic History

)
In software update 8.1, we have enhanced our real-time graphical traffic reporting within
the NetEqualizer. Traffic History Reports enable you to quickly see how busy your network
has been over a period of time, or hone in on an individual IP, Pool, or VLAN for analysis.
With our Traffic Reports, you can now track NetEqualizer traffic (bandwidth usage) for your
whole network, Pools, VLANs, as well as for IPs. Graphs display up to 4 weeks of data, and
show patterns of upload and download usage. With this tool, you can get a better handle
on how busy your network is over time, and what IPs are consuming your bandwidth.
