Options in the Connections menu allow you to view traffic connections in the Traffic table as:

  • Aggregations of multiple connections, for a more concise view

  • Individual connections, for a more granular view

  • Connections with unknown IP addresses

View Traffic as Aggregated Connections

  • Connections is selected in the Connections menu.

  • Common Set of Labels is selected in the Group by menu. (This Group by selection is optional and shown here merely as an example grouping method. You can select this and/or any other combination of grouping options in the Group by menu, or no option at all.)

  • The Source column shows an aggregation of 8, commonly-labeled IP addresses.

  • The Flow/Bytes column shows 8 connections.

  • The total row count for the page is 11.

View Connections with Unknown IP Addresses

From the Connections menu, select the Connections with Unknown IPs option to see a list of connections found by the query that your organization has not turned into unmanaged workloads. You can easily create unmanaged workloads from these connections using the Create Unmanaged Workloads option above the list. For more information, see View Connections with Unknown IP Addresses.
