Figure 6-2. The Source Address List Window

The Source Address List window displays addresses of all devices that have transmitted packets through the EMM-E6 within a time period less than the SAT’s defined aging time (addresses that have not transmitted a packet during one complete cycle of the aging timer will be purged). The Aging Time is user- configurable; see Setting the Aging Time, page 6-4. The list window can display about ten addresses at once; use the scroll bar to the right of the list window to view additional addresses, if necessary.

Since the SAT is constantly changing as old entries are aged out and new ones learned from the network, you should occasionally update the displayed list by

clicking mouse button 1 on . Once displayed, the list is static and will not reflect recent changes. Also static is the displayed number of Active Users;

this field will also update when you click on .
