Monitoring a Sonicwall

[Bluecrack]

My company has just purchased new SonicWALL equipment for different offices and I need to put some monitoring tools in place. What tools do you recommend for monitoring bandwidth usage, VPN stats, etc?

Does sonicwall support Netflow or something similar?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Most SonicWall products support the Viewpoint Reporting system

I use it and it is pretty comprehensive. You can get stats on bandwidth usage, web usage, browse time, sites blocked...etc.
