NBAR Reports

NBAR reports enable you to display Network Based Application Recognition report information from the devices for which you enable the NBAR plugin. NBAR examines data from Layer 3 through Layer 7 and classifies traffic by protocol. Enable the device to send NBAR data to SevOne and enable the NBAR plugin for a device on the Edit Device page. For details on enabling NBAR, please refer to section Enable NBAR in SevOne NMS System Administration Guide.

To access the NBAR Reports page from the navigation bar, click the Applications menu and select NBAR Reports.
