Abstract
An example method according to some embodiments includes receiving flow data for a packet traversing a network. The method continues by determining a source endpoint group and a destination endpoint group for the packet. The method continues by determining that a policy was utilized, the policy being applicable to the endpoint group. Finally, the method includes updating utilization data for the policy based on the flow data.
