Legacy WiNG controllers and service platforms, running WiNG 7.2.1 OS, use a
third-party DPI engine to inspect every byte of each application header packet
allowed to pass their managed radio devices. Applications recognized and classified
by DPI engine are applied administrator-defined actions. These actions are enforced
through an Application policy. For information on categorizing, filtering and
logging the application data allowed to proliferate the controller or service
platform managed network, refer to Create a Custom Application Definition and Create an Application Group.
Procedure
Select the Statistics tab
from the Web UI.
Expand the System node on
the top, left-hand side of the screen.
The System node expands to
display the RF Domains created within the managed network.
Expand an RF Domain node, select a
controller or service
platform.
The Controller's statistics menu displays
in the right-hand side of the screen, with the Health tab selected by
default.
Select Application Visibility
(AVC) from the menu.
The Application
screen displays.
Refer to the Top Applications graph to assess the most
prolific, and allowed, application data passing through the controller/access
point managed network.
Total Bytes
Displays the top ten utilized applications in respect to
total data bytes passing through the controller or service
platform managed network. These are only the administrator
allowed applications approved for proliferation within the
controller or service platform managed network.
Bytes Uploaded
Displays the top ten applications in respect to total
data bytes uploaded through the controller or service
platform managed network. If this application data is not
aligned with application utilization expectations, consider
allowing or denying additional applications and categories
or adjusting their precedence (priority).
Bytes Downloaded
Displays the top ten applications in respect to total
data bytes downloaded from the controller or service
platform managed network. If this application data is not
aligned with application utilization expectations, consider
allowing or denying additional applications and categories
or adjusting their precedence (priority).
Refer to the Application Detailed Stats table to assess specific application
data utilization:
Application Name
Lists the allowed application name whose data (bytes) are
passing through the controller or service platform managed
network.
Uploaded
Displays the number of uploaded application data (in
bytes) passing the through the controller or service
platform managed network.
Downloaded
Displays the number of downloaded application data (in
bytes) passing the through the controller or service
platform managed network.
Num Flows
Lists the total number of application data flows passing
through the controller or service platform for each listed
application. An application flow can consist of packets in a
specific connection or media stream. Application packets
with the same source address/port and destination
address/port are considered one flow.
Click Clear Application Stats to clear the application
assessment data counters and begin a new assessment. Selecting this option will
not clear category stats, just application stats.
