When possible, let the management console automatically monitor application traffic across all of your servers. Unlike a user-defined application, servers cannot be assigned to a system-defined application. If the management console requires additional information beyond what is available in the TCP packet to monitor the application, create a user-defined application. For example, create a user-defined application to monitor:

To reduce the number of application ports that are automatically monitored by the management console:
