Traffic usage statistics import is needed in case it is not possible for Parallels Business Automation - Standard to collect the needed traffic statistics automatically. For example, traffic statistics import can be used to control and bill traffic usage by dedicated servers, in the situation when traffic usage statistics are collected by some internal devices.
Below we describe all tags used in XML file to describe traffic usage statistics.
