historicalLevel 1

The module is designed to help you handle network traffic in a way that complies with your organization's security policy for protecting your network. The system can affect the flow of traffic using access control, which allows you to specify, in a granular fashion, how to handle the traffic entering, exiting, and traversing your network. All the information gathered from it can be used to filter and control that traffic.
