    Hi @Asgatlat,

    To display the hostname in the Traffic Statistics > Application Usage view, please refer to the following steps.

    1. Navigate to System > Advanced to turn on the "Device Insight" toggle image.png
    2. Once enabled, the toggle allows you to see the hostname in the Client Description section on the Application Usage page. image.png image.png

    Hi @Asgatlat,

    Correct. The Gold Security Pack license includes the Device Insight service. If a license has expired, you will see a reminder in this screen. You need to renew the license in order to keep using the feature.

    Hi @Asgatlat,

    Currently, the hostname is not displayed in the Traffic Statistics > Application Usage view.

    To better understand your needs, could you please share a bit more about your use case? For example, how would displaying the hostname in this section help with your workflow or network monitoring?

    Your input will help us evaluate this feature more effectively.

    Hi @Zyxel_Tina

    I have the same problem, however I am running a Zyxel USG Flex 500 and I am not using Nebula. I have a Gold pack though. From what I've found in my layout it seems the 'Device Insight' option is under Object. Is this the setting you are referring to, and should I (and how do I) set up a profile under 'Profile Management'. Please refer to attached screenshot.

    Hi @Zyxel_Tina

    Please refer to the attached image for this question. I was wondering if the 'Device Insight' in Object on my USG Flex 500 is the same as what you were referring to above? The next question would be should I (and how) set up a profile under Device Insight?
