Firewall bandwidth monitor to maximize the business usage of the Internet bandwidth

Firewall monitoring bandwidth

Firewall Analyzer is a firewall bandwidth monitor software. It provides you (IT Administrators) an unique way to monitor the firewall bandwidth usage. Firewall Analyzer measures firewall bandwidth usage based on the analysis of logs received from different network firewalls. Firewall bandwidth logs are collected, archived, and analyzed to get granular details about bandwidth usage across each firewall. You need not deploy any hardware probes or collection agents to get these details on bandwidth.

From the firewall log information, Firewall Analyzer extracts bandwidth information for firewall bandwidth management. As a network administrator from the reports, you can visualize the pattern of the firewall bandwidth usage. Firewall andwidth reports answers to a lot of bandwidth related questions.

  • Which user is using the most bandwidth?
  • Which host consumes the bandwidth?
  • What is the bandwidth share of various protocols?
  • When the bandwidth is bursting at the seams?

You will get bandwidth analysis reports for the following:

  • Firewall wise bandwidth usage: upload, download
  • Total intranet bandwidth usage: (internal to the firewall)
  • Total internet bandwidth usage: (external to the firewall)

Benefits of reports

If your business depends on inward web traffic, it is critical to keep watching the bandwidth for maximum business usage and fair personnel usage. In this scenario, bandwidth scarcity will hamper your business and keep your customers away. Hence, both inbound and outbound bandwidth analysis reports are necessary.

Protocol-wise bandwidth usage

This report provides the bandwidth information in various combinations. First, the bandwidth consumption by each protocol is displayed in the report. Next, the bandwidth consumption by each host and protocol is displayed. At the last, the bandwidth consumption by each user and protocol is displayed.

You can view the bandwidth consumption at a glance.

Bandwidth usage by Web, Mail, FTP, Telnet, Streaming and Chat protocols

These reports provide one more granular level bandwidth information for the Web, Mail, FTP, Telnet, Streaming and Chat protocols. In this report also, the bandwidth usage by each Web, Mail, FTP, Telnet, Streaming and Chat protocol, by each host and Web, Mail, FTP, Telnet, Streaming and Chat protocol and by each user and Web, Mail, FTP, Telnet, Streaming and Chat protocol is displayed. In all the reports, the amount of data sent, received and total of both for each protocol in the graph and table formats are available.
