Is it possible to create reports or graphs displaying type and amount of transported data, sources and dests?

rkra — Thu, 25 Sep 2014 12:59:26 GMT

Where to start with this topic:

I can monitor the bandwith with SNMP and PRTG Network Monitor.

Now I'm interested in data >>>PA can provide <<< about types of data, sources and destinations?

I would like to check e.g. this:

How much VoIP is running through the PA?

Who is downloading most data at the moment.

a.s.o.

I know there is sflow, but may be PA can help.

Hello Roman,

You can get these detail information from ACC report. (GUI of the PAN firewall). Or you may generate a custom PDF report with required parameter.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi Rkra,

If you are interested in running reports for specific application you can run query for those applications. Below is an example for VoIP_Report, where I am interested in looking at sessions and bytes for sip, rtp and rtcp traffic ((name eq sip) or (name eq rtp) or (name eq rtcp)). You can also use additional filters in "Selected Columns" to view more parameters. Hope this helps.

Thank you.

Agree with ssharma , custom report with query will give you information.

Is it possible to make a reverse DNS Query in reports to get Names instead IPs in report displayed?

If you are creating a custom report and just click "Run Now" it will give you IPs. I believe if you do a scheduled report, it will provide any applicable DNS name.
