Fetching total data transfer for ASA VPN User using PRTG Network Monitor

[Mark Thattazhi]

Is there any way to get the total amount of data transferred by VPN users when connected using SSL Anyconnect client. Currently i`m using PRTG Network Monitoring and the sensor that i have added only shows whether the user is Online/Offline. Is there any other way in PRTG to trigger the total data transfer by a user or is there any other monitoring tool that can give me this report.

Any suggestion on how to get this ?

Thank you.

Dear Mark,

It depends which networking gear you have, that supplies the VPNs. PRTG has two VPN Traffic Sensors, one for Cisco ASA (http://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/snmp_cisco_asa_vpn_traffic_sensor.htm) and one for Sonicwall devices (http://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/snmp_sonicwall_vpn_traffic_sensor.htm).

The Cisco ASA VPN Traffic Sensor will only work for IpSec-VPNs though.

If you then have the sensors, it will only be a matter of aggregating the results of the individual sensors into one Sensor Factory Sensor (http://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/sensor_factory_sensor.htm), and then running reports (http://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/reports.htm) on this.

Thanks Florian.

You`re right PRTG sensor will only work for IPSec VPNs and its working fine for my IPSec VPN. What i`m looking for is for SSL VPN Users. 

Anyways, i searched and have got ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer 30days trail. Which im trying out right now.
