the corresponding segment file.
Multisegment Toolbar
When an index file is opened like the one shown above, the
Multisegment Toolbar will display. This toolbar lets you navigate the
index file.
Spooled Recording
In a Spooled recording, uploading commences when the recording is begun. As traffic is
uploaded from the analyzer to the host PC, the analyzer memory is freed, creating space
for recording additional traffic. Recording can thus continue for long periods of time, and
create file lengths well in excess of the actual physical memory in the analyzer. However,
an issue to be aware of with any spooled recording is that the actual spooling process is
typically slow in comparison to the potential recording speed of the analyzer. So unless
the recorded traffic is intermittent or heavily filtered, it is possible for data to be lost if the
the spooling process does not keep pace with the recording process. This produces
"gaps" in the resulting data, which are identified in the data file.
