Monitoring traffic shaping

You can use the traffic shaping information that's available in FortiView to monitor traffic shaping in your network. Only traffic passing through forward traffic shapers will be included in FortiView.

  1. In the ForitGate GUI, go to FortiView > Traffic Shaping.
  2. To view statistical information about traffic shapers, select Table View . You can view information, such as the number of bytes that are sent and received and the number of sessions.
  3. To view which resources consume the most bandwidth, select Bubble Chart . Double-click on a traffic shaper to view more details. Determine whether more granular traffic shaping is required by looking at the bandwidth usage by sources, destinations, applications, policies, and sessions.
