Running a Community Daily or Hourly Traffic Report

This topic provides information about Community Daily or Hourly Traffic Reports.

To run traffic reports, enter the command for the report you want to run at the enter command prompt on the Messaging command prompt screen. Include the start date or month, or the starting hour or traffic type, depending on the report. In a few seconds, the system formats the collected data into the specified report.

The following topics provide information on Community Daily or Hourly Traffic Reports:

Note: If you do not enter a specific start date or time, you receive a report for the current day, month, or hour.

Overview of Community Traffic Reports

The Community Daily Traffic Report shows daily measurements of messages sent and received by each community.

Report contents

The report shows the total number of messages sent and received by each community. It also shows the number of messages that were not sent or received by each community due to restrictions on sending during any day in the 32-day period, including the current date.

Sending Restrictions feature

If you use the Sending Restrictions feature, this report monitors the feature's effectiveness and provides data for you to check to ensure that the appropriate communities in your organization are restricted. For example, if a community has a large number of calls blocked due to restrictions on sending, you might want to investigate further to determine if there is:

  • An administration problem. Are the right communities being allowed or denied access?
  • A subscriber problem. Do subscribers know they are restricted, and is the restriction appropriate?

Also, depending on how you use the feature, this report can provide security information if you are monitoring call activity involving sensitive communities.
