  • 1.  bandwidth monitor and blocking audio/video streaming with ssg20

    Posted 02-17-2011 09:05

    Hi,

    Few times a day I see unusual bandwidth loads that cause problems to the systems that use network connectivity (VoIP and such).

    A. Can I monitor bandwidth usage by IP ?

    B. Can I block audio/video streaming (netflix/youtube/pandora, etc...) with exceptions for the management (ceo/managers) ?

    C. Can I make a group of IPs that will have access only to website I approved ?

     

     

    Thank You!

    A. Yes, you need some type of firewall log anaylzer that would calculate this for you.

     

    B. Yes, you need to get a URL filter license (limited management features) OR setup your own websense server and redirect your web traffic (redirect requires no license), but websense is not cheap :).

     

    C: Yes, use different policies for each group. You do not want to go down this path. I don't know how large your nework is, but micromanaging this yourself can be very time consuming. (Websense can do all this for you).
