AppTrack is a logging and reporting tool that provides statistics for analyzing bandwidth usage of your network. It can be enabled on any logical system on an SRX Series device1. AppTrack collects byte, packet, and duration statistics for application flows in the specified zone2. AppTrack sends log messages through syslog providing application activity update messages1.
AppTrack does not identify or block traffic flows that might be malicious. That is the function of AppSecure, which is a suite of application security tools that includes AppID, AppFW, AppQoS, and AppDoS3. AppTrack is a complementary tool that provides visibility into the types of applications traversing through the SRX Series gateway4.
AppTrack can be configured in any logical system on an SRX Series device, not just the main one1. This allows for more flexibility and granularity in monitoring application traffic across different logical systems.
