AVC application control and visibility is another gadget on our security utility belt AVC not to be

00:00:09,390 --> 00:00:14,090
confused with net flow only provides application metrics.

3
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:20,250
This is valuable information for security monitoring because it allows you to see how much bandwidth

4
00:00:20,700 --> 00:00:23,180
each protocol is using on your network.

5
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:32,850
In addition to monitoring with AVC policies can be configured based on ABC data to filter or throttle

00:00:33,180 --> 00:00:42,000
malicious applications in the lab I have a Cisco router that's running and bar version 2 which is what

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,440
Cisco devices use to collect AVC information here I'm logged into the application visibility dashboard

8
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:57,510
running on the router as you can see it gives a nice summary of application usage for traffic traversing

9
00:00:57,510 --> 00:00:58,800
this router.

10
00:00:58,830 --> 00:01:04,980
So one of my routers had really high utilization with this AVC information I can take a quick look and

11
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:10,350
make sure that I had business applications using up the bandwidth instead of something malicious like

00:01:10,350 --> 00:01:11,360
a torrent to download.
