The Selected Data Set Activity (All Sessions) report shows the total number of sessions per FTP client or server for the data set chosen. Both data transfer and non-data transfer sessions are included. This report shows the FTP activity for the data set in terms of number of sessions.
The total number of sessions may or may not correlate with the period of highest amount of bytes transmitted. For example, there may be many FTP sessions that perform non-data transfer activity (RENAME), or many failed FTP sessions. You may wish to view some of the other reports in this section, such as Selected Data Set Activity (Bytes) Selected Data Set Activity (Data Sessions), to obtain a balanced picture of activity.
