Bandwidth Consumption

Bandwidth Consumption

The Bandwidth Consumption page provides information about the bandwidth consumption of various applications that can be filtered by event timestamp, application, user, source IP, Netskope POP, and access method. This dashboard delivers the following:

  • Network administrators can utilize the dashboard to monitor bandwidth usage and identify any unusual or excessive data consumption. Customers can quickly identify the top applications responsible for consuming the most bandwidth.
  • Network administrators can filter by application, enabling network teams to identify applications that are consuming excessive bandwidth or causing performance issues. This information can guide optimization efforts, such as implementing traffic shaping or prioritizing critical applications.
  • Network administrators can ensure compliance with network usage policies. Administrators can monitor if any unauthorized or prohibited applications are being used by filtering for user or application. This information can be used to enforce policies and take appropriate action when necessary.
  • Network teams can evaluate the bandwidth consumption patterns of different data centers.
  • Network administrators can gain insights into individual user’s bandwidth usage patterns.
