Chart
Host Matrix View as a chart shows only ten MAC conversations. The ten
conversations displayed are those transmitting the largest relative percentage of
frames. The chart can be customized to show the “top ten” conversations based on a
different information field. The
Bar
and
Pie
buttons toggle the type of graphic
display. The Pause/Resume button allows you to pause or resume real-time update
of the graph.
Table

pairs. The table lists statistics for all pairs found. The table can be customized to
include other columns of information. Table columns listed in italics are the default
Host Matrix View columns.
Press the right mouse button on any table entry to create a filter using the selected
MAC layer conversation. See Chapter 7 for information on filters.
