Peplink Balance Bandwidth Monitoring Tools

Real time data can be incredibly useful for a company to determine exactly how much bandwidth each of their connections are actively using. This can help you determine if you're over paying for a larger pipe than required, or see how the load is distributed by each of your connections. This is also broken down into download, upload and total amount transferred over each individual connection. You also have the ability to see your average statistics and bandwidth peaks, which can also be useful to ensure that you're actually getting what you pay for during heavy traffic hours.

Daily Usage: If you're not actively monitoring the real time statistics you can also refer to daily data consumption logs. This allows you to quickly reference usage on a daily basis and look for any anomalies on the network. If you notice some type of unusual spike, you can click on the specific date in question and look at each individual connection that used the network on that specific day. This gives you the ability to determine exactly which computer, server or which device transferred an unusual large amount of data. You can then take proper action by evaluating those systems looking for malware, viruses or if it's just a problematic employee downloading bit torrents. This can also be broken down by specific connections allowing you to determine how often your main connections are going down and failing over. If your ISP gives you a guarantee you can then use these data statistics as evidence, to indicate that you're not the service level you're paying for.

Monthly Usage: The monthly totals work just like the daily usage monitors work, but they allow you to quickly have an overview of the entire month. After you've implemented a Peplink Balance router in your network environment, you'll have a lot of data to analyze on all your active connections. This can help you spot any trends or an increased demand in bandwidth, which could be resulting in lost productivity. This can help you scale your business based on demand and ensure that you have enough connections or can safely terminate an extra line you though you may have needed for redundancy.
