network flow data from the viewpoint of a VPN, and it describes the report structure for VPN traffic

analyses. It reviews configuration issues around VPN analysis tasks and the reports they generate. It
describes the process for adding VPN traffic analysis tasks, including instructions for adding, modifying,

and deleting VPN tasks in NTA. Finally, it describes the summary reports for all VPN tasks and the more

detailed reports for an individual VPN traffic analysis task.

VPN traffic analysis overview

VPN traffic analysis tasks capture and analyze network flow data for VPNs. In general, the NTA's VPN

traffic analysis tasks provide traffic statistics for the VPNs configured in a VPN traffic analysis task. The

VPN traffic reports include rate of traffic for all VPNs in all tasks and for all VPNs in a task. VPN statistics

include traffic rate by application, source host, destination host, and a session or source/destination host
pair. These reports are organized into layers from summarized information for all tasks to detailed

reporting for specific VPNs configured for an individual VPN traffic analysis task.
