Notifications_High_Traffic_Usage
Threat Discovery Appliance can send an email when network traffic usage exceeds a certain threshold, which might happen if there is an external attack. Use the High Traffic Usage Notification screen to configure notifications sent to designated individuals.
The data on the screen resets if the product restarts or shuts down.
The numbers 0 to 23 on the horizontal axis of the Normal Traffic Pattern graph indicate the amount of time that passed since Threat Discovery Appliance scanned and produced the graph. They do not signify the time Threat Discovery Appliance scanned the network. 0 indicates the current size of scanned traffic, while 4 indicates the size 4 hours ago.
To configure notifications for detection of high network traffic usage:
Notifications > Notification Settings > High Network Traffic Usage
Select Notify administrator.
Click Auto-Detect for Threat Discovery Appliance to define the normal traffic threshold or manually identify the traffic threshold at certain hours of the day.
The traffic threshold default unit is 1GB.
The amount of network traffic is rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, 1.2GB displays as 2GB and 2.6GB displays as 3GB.
Click Save.
To disable notifications:
Notifications > Notification Settings > High Network Traffic Usage
Clear Notify administrator.
Click Save.
