Issue/Introduction

The 'Flow Statistics' page doesn't show any data if accessing NFA with HTTPS/SSL.

For example: https://localhost/ra/Admin/FlowStatistics.aspx

Environment

NFA 9.3.2 and later.

Resolution

1. On the NFA console backup the current <Installed Drive>:\CA\NFA\REPORTER\NetQoS.ReporterAnalyzer.WebService\Web.config file.
   
   
2. Open the <Installed Drive>:\CA\NFA\REPORTER\NetQoS.ReporterAnalyzer.WebService\Web.config file with Notepad.
   
   
3. On line 174, change the security mode from "None" to "Transport".
   
   For example, change from:
   
   <security mode="None">
   
   To:
   
   <security mode="Transport">
   
   
4. Save the file and reload the Flow Statistics Page.  There is no need to recycle any services or IIS.
