-HTTP:205.107.97.6

— service description (if it is a service defined in Kerio Net-

work Monitor

). This record shows “HTTP service on a server with IP address

205.107.97.6”. If Kerio Network Monitor doesn’t have such a service, the error

message unknown service is displayed.

Note: Kerio Network Monitor

resolves names of computers in the Internet using a DNS

protocol analysis. This method can be used only if a DNS query had been sent before

the connection was established. If a client contains this information in its local DNS

cache, a DNS query is not sent and Kerio Network Monitor “sees” only the IP address

of a target server.
