Welcome to our New UI Impact series, where we discuss LM Envision's updated UI features and their impact on our customers.
In our new UI, LogicMonitor has enhanced its Netflow monitoring capabilities by introducing Netflow Sankey graphs in the Traffic tab. These visual representations of data offer an alternative view or an additional graphic to the traditional table views. Sankey graphs display traffic flow from source to destination, with link widths proportional to the flow quantity. This intuitive visualization allows admins to quickly understand complex network traffic patterns without having to sift through rows of data. By providing a clear, visual representation of network traffic flow, Sankey graphs empower admins to make quicker, more informed decisions about network optimization and security.
But how does this benefit you? Sankey graphs allow you to quickly identify unusual traffic patterns, making spotting potential issues like excessive bandwidth consumption or security threats easier. For instance, an unusually wide link in the graph could reveal an employee streaming high-bandwidth content like Netflix during work hours in no time.
This tool saves time and enhances the overall efficiency of network monitoring and troubleshooting processes. Whether you're conducting root cause analysis, optimizing bandwidth utilization, or identifying potential security breaches, these Sankey graphs provide a powerful new way to visualize and understand your network traffic data.
