Set Up Analyses

An Analysis report is designed to compare collected network data to a threshold so you can identify potential bottlenecks, anomalies, and viruses. Analysis reports help you identify potential problems before they become serious issues. You can schedule these reports to run regularly, which means you can continually analyze your network traffic for potential issues.

To open the Analysis page, click Analysis in the NFA console menu.

The Analysis page includes the following options:

New

Create an Analysis report.

Run

Execute one or more reports at the same time.

Move to Folder

Transfer one or more reports to a different directory.

Cancel

Immediately stop the execution of one or more reports that are running.
