In the Apstra dashboard on the right hand colum, we notice a number of different layers, which we can use to view different types of anomalies.
If we need to specifically understand where the current bandwidth is being consumed and which switches are the top "talkers", Traffic heat is where all that information can be obtained.

Within Apstra, there is a probe which is analyzing the switches and collecting data which is then used to generate this heat map.

The legend indicates if a given interface or a switch representing all the Apstra managed interfaces is generating certain amount of traffic and is color coded accordingly. In this set up, most of these switches generating 21 to 40 or 41 to 60%.

Are the packets giants, are they runts, or how many packets are there with frame check sequence errors? The headroom probe provides a quick view in to all of this information at your fingertips. Imagine an operations person indicating they have a few problems in a specific application. The Networks operator of Apstra can use this view to look at all of the informaton between each of those servers and have a quick view of the headroom and check to see if there are any errors and report back.

All of the traffic information is dynamic and collected in real time. The network operator can go back in time to view the historical data too if necessary.
