You can create Reserved Seating rules to help ensure that reports include the port and protocol combinations that interest you, regardless of traffic volume or rates. The rules create ‘reserved seats’ for the ports that are used by those protocols so the data is sure to be included in reports.
For example, during an application rollout you want to watch the traffic for a particular application, but the Top N Protocols reports for interfaces do not show the traffic for the application. The protocol that the application uses is not included in the Top N Protocol group--the group of protocols with the highest traffic volume or utilization rate. You create a Reserved Seating rule to collect data for the specific protocol and port that the application uses. The protocol now is included in the Top N Protocols reports.
Note: The data that CA Network Flow Analysis typically collects is described in the topic How Data Is Collected.
