Flow Settings
Motadata comes along with 64 out of the box pre-mapped applications. The mapping converts the numeric/machine readable data into human understandable language. This is required in flow visualization menu and all the widgets that are used to see flows. For example:
- Port - 8080 is HTTP
- Port - 22 is SSH
Similar to applications and ports, we also have mapped protocols and host values. You should use this section when:
- You want to see the default mapping for flows.
- You are using custom port/protocol/hosts in your network (other than default)
- You are using a new application/protocol/host in your network.
