Flow Reporting

Manage the firewall’s flow reporting, statistics, and configurable settings for sending AppFlow and real-time data to a local collector or external AppFlow servers with the AppFlow feature. AppFlow provides support for external AppFlow reporting formats, such as NetFlow version 5, NetFlow version 9, IPFIX, and IPFIX with Extension. AppFlow includes support for Quest™ Change Auditor for SonicWall, the automated auditing module that allows you to collect data on Internet web site and cloud activity.

The DEVICE | AppFlow > Flow Reporting page includes settings for configuring the firewall to view statistics based on Flow Reporting and Internal Reporting. From this page, you can also configure settings for internal reporting as well as for AppFlow Agents, External Collector reporting, and SonicFlow Report (SFR) Mailing settings.

You can access the AppFlow Reports page by enabling Enable Aggregate AppFlow Report Data Collection on the DEVICE | AppFlow > Flow Reporting | Settings page.

You can clear the AppFlow settings on each page back to their default values by clicking Default Settings at the bottom of each DEVICE | AppFlow > Flow Reporting tabs.

The DEVICE | AppFlow > Flow Reporting page has these tabs:

Statistics – Displays reporting statistics in four tables.
