Protocols

Exactly what languages are these devices speaking to each other?

⇒Select Protocols to view the protocols seen on the desktop or network. This can be very useful for finding configuration mismatches. The Protocols screen below shows such a mismatch (Apple protocol found on the network side but not on the PC side).

Select a protocol type you wish to see (IP, NetWare, etc.). NetTool lists the protocols and icons to indicate where the protocol is seen.
