Overview
The NEW ACCOUNTING SESSIONS report in the GATE admin portal provides comprehensive monitoring and anomaly detection for AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) server sessions. This page displays time-series data with advanced analytics capabilities, allowing administrators to track session counts, identify anomalies, and analyze patterns over time.
Key Features
Real-time Session Monitoring: Visualizes accounting session data with interactive line graphs showing session counts over time
Anomaly Detection: Automated detection system that identifies unusual session patterns and flags them with distance metrics
Time-series Analysis: Displays historical session data with customizable time intervals
Multi-organization Support: Includes sub-organization filtering capabilities
Export Functionality: Allows data export for external analysis and reporting
Configurable Sensitivity: Adjustable anomaly detection parameters for fine-tuned monitoring

Main Chart Area
The line graph displays:
X-axis: Date/time stamps (Feb 12 6:00 pm through Feb 13 3:00 pm)
Y-axis: Session count (scale from 48 to 172)
Yellow warning markers: Indicate detected anomalies on the timeline
Trend line: Shows session count progression over time with visible anomaly spike at the end
Data Table
Columns include:
Date/time: Timestamp with clickable link icon for drill-down
Count: Session count value (ranging from 46.0 to 61.0)
Anomaly distance: Numeric value showing deviation from normal (-2.82 to 0.2)
Anomaly detected: Visual indicator (green checkmark or red dot)
User Interactions
Viewing Session Data
The chart automatically displays session trends based on active filters
Hover over data points on the line graph to see detailed values
Click on timestamps in the table to view session details

Click Proceed to apply changes
Analyzing Anomalies
Review rows marked with red dots in the "Anomaly detected" column
Check "Anomaly distance" values - higher absolute numbers indicate greater deviation
Yellow warning markers on the chart highlight time periods with detected anomalies
The chart shows a significant spike at approximately Feb 13 3:00 pm

Session Metrics
Count: Total number of accounting sessions in each time interval
Date/time: Precise timestamp for each data point
Anomaly distance: Statistical measure of deviation from expected values (negative values indicate below-normal activity, positive values indicate above-normal)
Anomaly Indicators
Green checkmark: Normal session activity within expected parameters
Red dot: Anomaly detected based on configured sensitivity and window size
Yellow markers: Visual alerts on the timeline chart
Current Data Set

Notes/Tips
Best Practices
Sensitivity Settings: Start with "Very high" sensitivity to catch all potential anomalies, then adjust based on false positive rates
Data Sampling: 10% sample size is suitable for large datasets; increase for more precise anomaly detection on smaller datasets
Time Intervals: 24-hour intervals provide good balance between detail and overview for most monitoring scenarios
Interpreting Anomalies
Negative anomaly distance: Indicates unusually low session counts (potential service issues)
Positive anomaly distance: Indicates unusually high session counts (potential security events or legitimate traffic spikes)
Zero distance: Sessions within normal expected range
Enable "Sub-organizations" only when cross-organizational analysis is required
Use appropriate time intervals to balance detail vs. system performance
Export to CSV for complex analysis in external tools like Excel or data analysis platforms
Troubleshooting
If no anomalies appear but issues are suspected, lower the sensitivity setting
Verify timezone settings match your operational requirements
Check that the "Active" checkbox is enabled for anomaly detection to function
Ensure "Zequenze" organization filter is correctly applied for relevant data
