Does anyone know how you would show the packets/s on any given ip address?

When you setup the DoS protection and Zone protection it will ask you for the packets per second that you want to set the alert, alrm, and max thresholds on. The issue is without making random guesses I can't find a way to actually set these values since the PA won't tell me how many packets are actually going to that IP address. On the show session all screen you can get the total number of packets that enter the PA, but I can't seperate that by IP address or Zones from my understanding

@BPry If you've got netflow configured on your network you can get the pps from there. Run a baseline for few weeks and set your values on the DoS profile.

@Brandon_Wertz Thanks! I've actually had the server setup for a while, evidentally I never actually enabled it on any of the interfaces however.
