Network usage data export
The system stores up to approximately 1 GB of network usage data, deleting the oldest as needed. Data
size is based on site topology complexity, not usage, so it’s very predictable. On a system with the largest
supported site topology, it’s only one day’s worth of usage data, but most systems should retain data for a
substantially longer period.

fixed value. The panes have a minimum width, and they arrange themselves to best fit your browser window.
