Statistics & Analytics

Overview

The statistics dashboard provides a real-time, at-a-glance summary of traffic across all Horizon circuits in the project over the last 24 hours. It is displayed prominently at the top of the monitoring dashboard and is designed to convey an immediate sense of the volume and health of traffic flowing through the circuits without requiring review of individual log entries. The statistics update automatically when the dashboard is loaded and reflect aggregate data across all circuits in the project, not a single circuit.

Metrics

The statistics bar displays five key metrics. Total Requests displays the total number of HTTP requests received across all circuits in the project during the last 24 hours, indicating overall traffic volume. Allowed displays the count and percentage of requests that successfully passed all security layers and were forwarded to their respective backend services - a high allowed percentage indicates that most traffic is legitimate and authorized. Blocked displays the count and percentage of requests that were stopped by one of the security layers (IP filtering, country blocking, bot detection, or access policy denial) - a rising blocked percentage may indicate increased attack activity or a misconfigured rule that is blocking legitimate users. Download displays the total response data transferred from backend services to clients, measured in bytes, indicating outbound bandwidth utilization. Upload displays the total request data received from clients, measured in bytes, indicating inbound data volume.

Color Coding

The metrics in the statistics bar use color-coded indicators for quick visual assessment. Allowed counts and percentages are displayed with success/green styling, indicating healthy, permitted traffic. Blocked counts and percentages are displayed with warning/red styling, drawing attention to denied traffic that may warrant investigation. These color cues enable rapid anomaly detection - for example, a sudden spike in blocked requests (a large red number) may indicate an ongoing attack or a newly added security rule that is intercepting unexpected traffic.
