Viewing a traffic summary by IP-level protocol

The DDoS Mitigation and Reporting portal shows a summary of traffic for all monitored networks broken down by IP-level protocol. You can also view a TCP traffic summary or a traffic summary by application.

 

Negative values show traffic out of your network (in to Lumen). Positive values represent traffic into your network (out of Lumen). Each IP-level protocol has a unique color in the graph. 

To view a traffic summary by IP-level protocol: 

  1. Depending on your DDoS product, you can access the DDoS Mitigation and Reporting dashboard using one of the following methods. 

    • Using the left menu, click Services, click Service Portals, then click DDoS Mitigation and Reporting. Confirm that you are going to an external site, then click Log In with SSO.

    • Click Monitoring, click Security Solutions Analytics, then click DDoS Mitigation and Reporting in either the Reports or DDoS Mitigation Service sections.
