Core Monitoring: Host Statistics
This illustration provides an example of the reports you will see if you choose Network Hosts Statistics from
the Setup > Monitor > Core Monitoring menu. As you can see, the Host Statistics table provides you with
the host names or network address of the hosts that it has discovered as well as statistics by network layer
protocol and the number of bytes and packets for every host. If you choose MAC layer host statistics (NAM-
1/2 only), you will be presented with the same tables and charts, but MAC addresses will be presented in lieu
of network host names or network addresses. This information is useful for identifying which stations, servers,
and end users are generating the most traffic by network and application protocol or by Layer 2 MAC
address.
Note: Selecting any host in this report will display a drill-down report showing all application conversations
this host is involved in. More on this report and its options later in this chapter.
