Is it possible to generate "email" alert when any user reaches the defined bandwidth threshold?

Hi All,

Is it possible to generate "email" alert when any user reaches the defined bandwidth threshold?

Eg: Defined bandwidth threshold is 1 MB, if any user reach or exceeds the defined bandwidth threshold then the device should trigger a email alert to administrator.

Note : I don't want to restrict any user to 1MB, but need onle alert if he exceeds or reaches the defined threshold.

Thank you,

Guru

Hi Guru

It's not possible to set an action where an email is sent upon reaching the treshold.

But, considering the nature of network applications, each session would potentially trigger an email as each application will try to take as much bandwidth as possible.

Hi @reaper

Is there a quick way to get a report on traffic usage via email?
When our bandwidth is maxing out (or 95%), I will receive an email notification from the system including a list of IPs (or top users) and their usage. No need to access to web interface and do a manually check.
