Monitor Traffic Map

You are here: Monitor > Maps and Charts > Traffic Map.

Note:

Traffic Map page is available on all the SRX Series Firewalls except the SRX5000 line of devices.

J-Web supports monitoring traffic through a map. Use this page to visualize inbound and outbound traffic between geographic regions. You can click or hover over the bubble to view more details on the inbound or outbound traffic. The size of the bubble indicates the session count or the bandwidth utilization for a traffic. Traffic with unknown geographical IP addresses and private IP addresses are displayed as question mark icon and lock icon, respectively.

Note:

To view the data on the Traffic Map page, ensure that security logging is enabled. If not, go to Device Administration > Basic Settings > Security Logging and enable Stream mode Logging and On-box reporting.
