Documentation forNetFlow Traffic Analyzer
Analyzing network traffic and bandwidth is a key capability of SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted (formerly Hybrid Cloud Observability) and is available in the Advanced edition. NetFlow Traffic Analyzer (NTA) is also available in a standalone module.

What protocols does NTA support?

SolarWinds NTA collects and monitors interface-level flow data, and helps you identify consumers of bandwidth. Flow data comes to NTA using one of many protocols.

Selectively specifying monitored protocols can reduce the amount of NetFlow traffic that NTA processes, which improves performance. Specified protocols depend on the device type, as each device supports different types of protocols. Check your vendor's documentation to determine the correct protocols.

For an overview of flow protocols supported by NTA, see NTA flow requirements.
