O. Traffic Statistics FAQ

O01. When I use "Flush Data" in Report, not all the statistic data are cleared.
"Flush Data" means that it clears the statistic data for the specified interface, not all interfaces.
If users want to clear all data, stop collection and start it again.
O02. Why isn't the statistic data of "Report" exact?
Report module utilizes limited memory to collect data. It means that the longer is the
collecting duration or the more connections, the less exact the result the Report module has.
This Report function is mainly used for troubleshooting, when a network problem happens.

O03. Does Report collect the traffic from/to ZyWALL itself?

In Report module, only the forwarding traffic will be recorded. The forwarding traffic means
the traffic going through ZyWALL. Therefore, only the broadcast traffic in the bridge interface
will be recorded.

O04. Why cannot I see the connections from/to ZyWALL itself?

In Session module, only the forwarding traffic will be listed The forwarding traffic means the
traffic going through ZyWALL. Therefore, the broadcast traffic in the bridge interface will
be listed.
