Access this report by drilling in from other reports, such as application group, hosts, users, conversations, subnets.
To interact with the pie-based reports, you can hover over the pie slices to view the amount of data transferred as well as
view the percentage of the pie. Note that the pie is showing only the top items, so the proportion is relative to the top
items - not relative to all the traffic through the appliance. That is, if one wedge showed 50% of the traffic, that means it
is 50% of the top items, not 50% through the appliance.

3.2.7 Monitoring network users
The Users report shows the top users by data volume for a selected time period. Inbound and outbound traffic are
reported separately. You can view internal and external users in the report, answering questions such as:
What internal users are the top talkers and top listeners?
Which external users are top talkers?
Which external users are top listeners?
Is one user choking the network?
Using this information, you can determine if you need to create policies for these high data volume users. You may want
to create protection policies for your important users, like your CEO or finance department, or create control policies to
limit users who are abusing the network.
In this report, users are associated with IP addresses. Network traffic flows from one host to another and typically, one
host is considered internal to your network while the other is considered external.
Hosts that fall into a network object defined as internal are considered internal to your network. Hosts that fall into a
network object defined as external are considered external to your network. Keep in mind that the traffic is inbound and
outbound relative to your LAN – not relative to the host or user. Inbound traffic for an external user means a user was
sending data into your network.
You can drill into the user by clicking on the user name in the tables below the charts. This will show the
for the user that you drilled into. You can then use the selector on the Applications report page to show URLs or
conversations or hosts that involved the user.
