Source Addressing

Figure 5-2. The Source Address List Window

The Source Address List window displays addresses of all devices that have transmitted packets through the SEHI within a time period less than the SAT’s defined ageing time (addresses that have not transmitted a packet during one complete cycle of the ageing timer will be purged). The Ageing Time is user- configurable; see Setting the Ageing Time, page 5-4. 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.

NOTE

Some entries in the Source Address List window may list port numbers 25 or 26; port 25 represents EPIM 1, and port 26 represents EPIM 2.

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 .
