Sessions

Sessions Sessions

Sessions provides a view of the current sessions (also known as connections).

Each row represents a single a network session/and its properties.

As NG Firewall and all the apps learn more about a session, many will "attach" data to the session so it is globally visible and accessible to other apps. The Sessions view provides a view into everything that is known about each session.

The Sessions view provides a real-time view into the network, and can also provide a great debugging. The controls provide a way to view the current sessions of a specific application, host, user, website, policy, etc. This can be used to view activity or to verify that traffic is being handled properly, by the proper policy, etc.
