Exporter Registration; Traffic Flow Portlet - Dell OpenManage Network Manager Client Manual

Exporter Registration

Before you can collect traffic data from
a device, you must Register it as a traffic
flow exporter. If a device is not
registered, the Register command
appears in the menu. If it is registered
the Unregister command appears.
When you successfully register an
eligible device, a success message
appears; otherwise, a failure message
appears, and no registration occurs.
The Show Traffic menu option opens a
drop-in (full screen) Traffic Flow Portlet
with a pick list of available information
types.
This displays the Exporters Detail, Top
5 Applications, Top 5 Autonomous
Systems, Top 5 Conversations, Top 5
Endpoints, Top 5 Protocols, Top 5
Receivers, and Top 5 Senders related to
the device selected before right-
clicking. Select a type and click the
Refresh double arrow to the right of the
selector.
The screen that then appears has the features of the Expanded Traffic Flow Portlet described
below. See also How to: Use Traffic Flow Analyzer on page 295.
