Explanation

NetFlow is a Cisco IOS feature that collects detailed IP traffic statistics, including source/destination IP, ports, and protocol. Because it captures Layer 4 port information, it can identify which specific application (e.g., HTTP on port 80, BitTorrent, streaming video) is consuming bandwidth and causing slow performance. SNMP monitors device-level health metrics but doesn't identify applications. WCCP (Web Cache Communication Protocol) redirects web traffic to a cache device. IP SLA measures network performance (latency, jitter, packet loss) but doesn't break down traffic by application.
