Paragon Automation enables you to generate and view Demand reports that help you analyze network traffic. For information on the types of Demand reports and how to generate them, see Demand Reports Overview.

To view demand reports, select Reports > Demand.

You can perform the following actions on this page:

View the following demand reports:
- VPN Demand reports, see Table 1.
- Group Demand reports, see Table 2.
- Label-switched paths (LSP) Demand reports, see Table 3.
- Autonomous system (AS) Demand reports, see Table 4.
Download a report—Hover over the Download button on the top-right corner of the report and select either CSV or JSON to download the report as a comma-separated values file (CSV) or JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file, respectively.
Show or hide columns in a report—Click the vertical ellipsis icon at the top right corner of the report and select the columns that you want displayed in the report.

Only the columns that you selected are included in the report.
View traffic in a time series graph—Select a demand and click More > Show Chart. The Time Series page appears, displaying a time series graph that shows the amount of traffic (in bps) for the time range for which you've generated the demand report. The x-axis indicates the time, while the y-axis indicates the amount of traffic.
