Flows Transferred Bytes Source/Destination
Last updated
Last updated
The Flows Transferred Bytes Source/Destination card shows the bytes of flows transferred from each source to each destination.
Refer to the page for detailed steps on how to create it.
The graph shows all sources and destinations separated by an arrow, together with the number of bytes transferred. To the left of the arrow is the Actor that performed the transfer. To the right of the arrow is the Actor that received the data. Clicking on any Actor, the filter will be applied and only the 2 Actors involved will be displayed in the card. To remove this filter, click the X icon in the Filter by: bar, above the card. If you move the mouse over the bar, the bytes relevant to flows in error and success status are displayed.
Clicking the 3 dots button in the upper right corner of the card, the following options will appear:
Settings: Define if incomplete flows must be shown or not. To have this detail, set the Show incomplete flows option to ON and click the APPLY button. Note that by default this option is not enabled. When enabled, the graph will display incomplete flows without indication of the Actors and only with the arrow, as in the following figure.
Filter: Filter the data displayed on the card according to the following criteria:
From - To: Select the time range in which to collect data. Click the APPLY button to confirm each date selected.
Filename: Enter the name of the file transferred from a source to a destination. The specified string will be searched in all filenames, i.e. writing march will return all filenames that contain march anywhere in the filename. The graph will list all flows containing the filename or string entered, showing both the source and the destination of each transfer.
Outcome: Select SUCCESS, FAILURE or ERROR. Once the filter is applied, the card will display only the results that match the selected criterion.
Source: If you want to know the bytes of all the flows started from a specific source, enter the name of the source in this field.
Destination: If you want to know the bytes of all flows that have arrived at a specific destination, enter the name of the destination in the field.
Source Queue: If you want to know the bytes of all the flows started from a specific source queue, enter its name in this field.
Destination Queue: If you want to know the bytes of all flows of a specific destination queue, enter the name of the destination queue in the field. In the Filters window, to remove an option, click the red X. The RESET button restores default settings. In the Flows Transferred Bytes Source/Destination card, when a filter is applied, a funnel icon appears in the upper right corner to indicate that the results shown are a subset of the total. Clicking the funnel icon, all applied filters will be listed. To open the Filters window and edit them directly, click the pencil icon. You can create as many cards as you need to meet the number of criteria you require. For example, you can create a card with the bytes for all flows transferred and another only for flows in ERROR; or a card with all bytes for flows transferred to all destinations and another with bytes of flows transferred to a specific destination. And so on.
Color: Select a different color for the external border of the card. Click the RESET button to restore the default colors.
Remove: Select the option to remove the card. Note that the card will be removed without any further prompting.
Clicking on the single chip opens the Flows window, which lists all the flows of the selected group. The Flows window is equipped with a toolbar to easily navigate through results. Columns can be shown or hidden by clicking the icon on the top right corner. Columns cannot be sorted but the list can be exported in CSV format by clicking the EXPORT button on the top left corner of the window.
