#### What you can do with Network session analytics

- **Analyze geographic distribution**: View a world map showing where your network traffic originates, with a list of top locations by session count.
- **Monitor key metrics**: Track session count, total bytes transferred, and unique users.
- **Identify connection issues**: Analyze connection close reasons to troubleshoot network problems.
- **Review protocol usage**: See which network protocols (TCP, UDP, ICMP) are most used.

#### Dashboard features

- **Summary metrics**: Session count, bytes total, and unique users
- **Traffic by location**: World map visualization and location list with top traffic sources
- **Top protocols**: Breakdown of TCP, UDP, ICMP, and ICMPv6 traffic
- **Connection close reasons**: Insights into why sessions terminated (client closed, origin closed, timeouts, errors)
