Top Sessions
Top Sessions displays either a bar graph or a table showing the IP addresses that have
the most sessions currently open on the FortiGate unit. The sessions are sorted by their
source or destination IP address, or the port address. The sort criteria being used is
displayed in the top right corner.
The Top Sessions widget polls the FortiGate unit for session information, and this slightly
impacts the FortiGate unit performance. For this reason when this display is not shown on
the dashboard, it is not collecting data, and not impacting system performance. When the
display is shown, information is only stored in memory.
