Data Retention

Here, we set how long collected data for Netflow, Alerts, and Aggregations will be stored on the machine. In the Storage window at the bottom row, you can see how much disk space is currently occupied, while the top row represents the prediction considering the number of flows and the capabilities of the purchased license.
