When you add VPNs to a task, NTA will show you a list of all devices that NTA knows about. The

list is generated from the devices that have been added to NTA using the Device Management
feature. If the devices you want to select do not appear on this list, it is most likely because the

device has not been added to NTA or it has not been selected in the NTA server configuration

found under server management. For more information on adding a device for traffic analysis to

NTA, see "

Device management

." For more information on selecting devices in NTA server

management, see "

Modifying an NTA server configuration

."

You must enable network flow data on the devices for the VPNs you want to monitor and report on.

Managing VPN traffic analysis tasks

NTA processes, analyzes, and reports on network flow data through the tasks that administrators create.

Until a task is created, NTA does not analyze the data that devices forward to it or that it is configured
to receive. Effective management of tasks results in the reporting you need. The following information

describes the process for adding, modifying, or removing VPN traffic analysis tasks in NTA.
