If this option is selected and an unknown traffic event occurs, SolarWinds NTA notifies you about it in the yellow banner below the main tool bar.Įnable this option for SolarWinds NTA to monitor interfaces for Wireless Controller nodes on the NetFlow sources widget and on the Manage sources page.
Show notification bar for unknown traffic events If selected, SolarWinds NTA automatically associates a flow with an appropriate SolarWinds NPM node if the node has multiple IP addresses and is sending flows from a non-primary address. If you want SolarWinds NTA to discard any flow packets where only one of the involved interfaces is managed by SolarWinds NPM, clear this option.Ĭlearing this option may significantly decrease the processing load on both your SolarWinds NTA server and your SolarWinds Platform database server, but it will also decrease the amount of flow data stored in your SolarWinds Platform database.Īllow matching nodes by another IP address If selected, SolarWinds NTA automatically monitors flow packets even if one of the involved interfaces is not managed by SolarWinds NPM. This option may significantly increase the processing load on both your SolarWinds NTA server and your SolarWinds Platform database server.Īllow monitoring of flows from unmanaged interfaces To save space in your database and discard data from unmonitored ports, clear this option. Click Monitor Port to track this traffic by port. If selected, SolarWinds NTA retains all flow data provided by NetFlow sources on your network, including flow data for ports that you are not actively monitoring.Ī benefit of having this data is that, should you see a significant percentage of unmonitored traffic under Top XX Applications, you can expand the tree to drill down to the interface level.
All recognized NetFlow sources are listed under NetFlow Sources on NTA Summary.Īllow monitoring of flows from unmonitored ports If selected, all flow-enabled devices in the SolarWinds Platform database sending flow data to the server hosting SolarWinds NTA are automatically added as NetFlow sources. NetFlow management optionsĮnable automatic addition of NetFlow sources On new installations, all the options are enabled by default.ĭue to the volume of data involved in flow monitoring, you may find it necessary to disable the inclusive monitoring options to save database space. NetFlow Management options ensure that you are able see all flow data available from flow-enabled devices on your monitored network.
