Application Intelligence Session

Application Visualization (formerly known as Application Monitoring) collects application statistics from GigaVUE physical device and sends this information to GigaVUE-FM, which acts as an application monitor. The monitoring reports are sent to GigaVUE-FM on port 2056. The application statistics are displayed as a set of monitoring reports, providing easy-to-read graphical representations of application usage data. This gives you better insight over how your network is utilized and which applications consume the most resources. To enable Application Monitoring, you need to create the application intelligence session on GigaVUE HC Series devices managed by GigaVUE-FM.

Application Visualization uses various classification methods to identify applications. The application statistics exported to GigaVUE‑FM may take up to seven minutes to populate the following dashboards:

- Top 10 Applications

- Top 10 Applications Families

- Total Traffic

- Total Applications

Users can view the statistics based on the following metrics, Bits, Packets, and Flows. Historical data can be accessed for up to seven days. and Users can export the application visualization records using the IP interface. However, it's not recommended to use the IP interface, as disruptions to the data plane may prevent GigaVUE-FM from collecting and displaying the statistics.
