The following table displays the maximum number of records shown in the report, the byte count
limit, and the hit count limit.
Direction This field indicates whether the IP address or user is sending or receiving traffic.
Rx From- traffic is coming from the IP address or user to the NXC.
Tx To - traffic is going from the NXC to the IP address or user.
IP Address/User This field displays the IP address or user in this record. The maximum number of IP
addresses or users in this report is indicated in Table 28 on page 64.
Amount This field displays how much traffic was sent or received from the indicated IP address or
user. If the Direction is Rx From, a red bar is displayed; if the Direction is Tx To, a blue
bar is displayed. The unit of measure is bytes, Kbytes, Mbytes or Gbytes, depending on the
amount of traffic for the particular IP address or user. The count starts over at zero if the
number of bytes passes the byte count limit. See Table 28 on page 64.
These fields are available when the report type is Service/Port.
# This field is the rank of each record. The protocols and service ports are sorted by the
amount of traffic.
Service Port This field displays the service and port in this record. The maximum number of services
and service ports in this report is indicated in Table 28 on page 64.
Protocol This field indicates what protocol the service was using.
Direction This field indicates whether the indicated protocol or service port is sending or receiving
traffic.
Ingress - traffic is coming into the NXC through the interface.
Egress - traffic is going out from the NXC through the interface.
Amount This field displays how much traffic was sent or received from the indicated service / port.
If the Direction is Ingress, a red bar is displayed; if the Direction is Egress, a blue bar
is displayed. The unit of measure is bytes, Kbytes, Mbytes, Gbytes, or Tbytes, depending
on the amount of traffic for the particular protocol or service port. The count starts over at
zero if the number of bytes passes the byte count limit. See Table 28 on page 64.
These fields are available when the report type is Web Site Hits.
# This field is the rank of each record. The domain names are sorted by the number of hits.
Web Site This field displays the domain names most often visited. The NXC counts each page viewed
on a Web site as another hit. The maximum number of domain names in this report is
indicated in Table 28 on page 64.
Hits This field displays how many hits the Web site received. The NXC counts hits by counting
HTTP GET packets. Many Web sites have HTTP GET references to other Web sites, and the
NXC counts these as hits too. The count starts over at zero if the number of hits passes the
hit count limit. See Table 28 on page 64.
