# NetFlow

## NetFlow data on the Monogoto Hub

The Monogoto Hub allows you to view the IP traffic on your Things (SIMs). You can find this information under the NetFlow tab on the Things details page. The NetFlow feature enables real-time monitoring and historical analysis of IP traffic for the SIM, providing deeper insights into network activity for the past 24 hours.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The NetFlow feature uses only metadata (such as source/destination IPs, ports, protocols, timestamps, etc.) and does not capture or analyze payload data. Monogoto retains metadata for the last 7 days, while the portal displays data from the most recent 24 hours.
{% endhint %}

By default, this feature is disabled on your account. You can enable the feature in two places. 

1\. Under the Integrations page

2. In the Thing details page at the table section

Once activated, you can view the NetFlow data on the bottom of your individual Thing page. Here you will see the source IP, destination IP, protocol name and number of bytes used.

On the NetFlow tab, you can also choose to aggregate the data. This will show you how many bytes were exchanged between a specific IP over the 24 hours.&#x20;
