How can I monitor bandwidth with PRTG?

Hi , I would like to know if it's possible to use your product PRTG to see how our bandwidth is being used. We can see the traffic sensors and it gives us the whole bandwidth. What we are interested in is to break it down into protocols/hosts internal/external that are using the bandwidth .

Hello,

There is no simple answer to this question. The approach depends completely on the setup and topology of your network as well as the software and hardware used. Please have a look at the following article: How do I discern excessive bandwidth usage with PRTG?

Best Regards.
