Traffic Shaping

The Traffic Shaping console provides information about FortiGate Traffic Shapers that are currently in effect. This console can be filtered by Traffic Shaper Name. For more on filters, see Filtering options.

A number of columns available in FortiView are only available in Traffic Shaping. For example, the Shaper column displays the name of the Shaper, which can be used to monitor the traffic being shaped by Bytes Sent, Received, and Dropped, so that bandwidth patterns and Shaper effectiveness can be analyzed.

 

Only FortiGate models 100D and above support the 24 hour historical data.
