Top N Devices Report 107
Top N Devices
Report
This report calculates the top N devices by total octets sent and received,
and by the number of “hits” over the report period. You can limit the
report to consider only devices within a specified group.
For example:
■ Select the Traffix root group and the report tells you the most active
machines on the entire network.
■ Select the US group and the report tells you the most active devices in
the U.S.
Since it is possible that the top N devices identified by total octets sent are
different from the top N devices identified by hits, Section 2 of this report
can contain more than N device details.
