Miscellaneous settings
Active Discovery (Enable / Disable) When the FrameScope is attached to a switch port it only sees broadcast traffic and traffic targeted for the FrameScope. When ‘Active Discovery’ is enabled the FrameScope requests information from devices on the network to increase the amount of information the FrameScope can learn from the network.
Active Discovery will affect the network and, in some cases, will trigger some alarms. Use at your own risk.
Erase Station List (Enable/Disable) The
FrameScope automatically discovers stations on the network which it is connected to and shows these stations on the main window. The user can refresh this station list by removing and reconnecting
the physical link (i.e. Fiber or Copper cable) when Erase Station List feature is enabled.
IP Qos (Enable / Disable) If ‘Qos’ is enabled, FrameScope will send IP packets with the IP TOS field set. User can select either to use IP TOS or IP Differential Service field (DSCP). If IP TOS is used, user can set the IP Priority along with TOS Value. If DSCP is used, user can set the DSCP value to be used in the IP Packets.
Flow Control (Enable/Disable) If Flow Control is enabled, FrameScope Pro will transmit flow control packets (XON and XOFF frames) based on the MAC FIFO's fullness.
When satisfied, press OK.
