How it works...

The traffic graph shows real-time information of all traffic flowing to and from a particular interface. The table to the right will show the traffic information for the top few devices on the network.

Note

Your browser must support SVG graphics, as Firefox does. If your browser doesn't support SVG graphics, install the Adobe SVG Viewer.
