Scenario 2

Interface NBAR

Use NBAR to find out application details per interface for any indication of problems.

Monitor > Router > NBAR

Interface NBAR

Before configuring the NM-NAM for more in-depth monitoring of the WAN link, Dean decides to also view

what applications NBAR has discovered on the WAN link.

Step 1. Click Monitor > Router > NBAR. The NBAR report is displayed.

Step 2. Select Se0/0 (the WAN link) from the pull down source menu. Notice that all interfaces are

listed in the pull down menu regardless if they are operational or not. Selecting a non-

operational interface will simply provide no data and a Warning message as to the probable

reason for no data.

Dean notes that currently approximately 6% of the traffic seen is unknown (other). This is more than likely

the proprietary traffic that Dean wants to classify to get an idea of how much of the WAN links bandwidth it is

utilizing.

To do this, Dean needs to configure the Router to send all traffic on the WAN link to the NAM for analysis.
