Top FTP Users (Data Sessions)

The Top FTP Users (Data Sessions) report shows the total number of sessions per FTP client or server for the number of top addresses chosen. Only data transfer sessions are included. This report shows you who the heaviest users of FTP are at your installation in terms of number of data transfer 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 the Top FTP Users (All Sessions) to obtain a balanced picture of activity. Then if you want more detail about a particular address, select the Options (Show Detail) button to view all the FTPs performed by that address for the time period chosen.
