DESCRIPTION

Amount

This field displays how much traffic was sent or received from the

 

indicated service / port. If the Direction is Ingress, a red bar is

 

displayed; if the Direction is Egress, a blue bar is displayed. The unit of

 

measure is bytes, Kbytes, Mbytes, Gbytes, or Tbytes, depending on the

 

amount of traffic for the particular protocol or service port. The count

 

starts over at zero if the number of bytes passes the byte count limit.

 

See Table 30 on page 178.

 

 

 

These fields are available when the Traffic Type is Web Site Hits.

 

 

#

This field is the rank of each record. The domain names are sorted by

 

the number of hits.

 

 

Web Site

This field displays the domain names most often visited. The ZyWALL

 

counts each page viewed on a Web site as another hit. The maximum

 

number of domain names in this report is indicated in Table 30 on page

 

178.

 

 

Hits

This field displays how many hits the Web site received. The ZyWALL

 

counts hits by counting HTTP GET packets. Many Web sites have HTTP

 

GET references to other Web sites, and the ZyWALL counts these as hits

 

too. The count starts over at zero if the number of hits passes the hit

 

count limit. See Table 30 on page 178.

 

 

The following table displays the maximum number of records shown in the report, the byte count limit, and the hit count limit.
