Application Layer Host Table View

From Detail View, click on the button to open a window with Application Layer Host Table View. From Summary View, set the view preferences to Application Layer Host Table to see this view in the first tab.

Application Layer Host Table View is available as a chart showing the ten network stations with the most traffic or as a table showing all network stations.

The network station address and name are provided in the table or chart. The name and address will be the same if Surveyor does not have a name table with an address-to-name correspondence for this station.

Chart

Application Layer Host Table View as a chart shows only ten applications over network stations. The ten stations displayed are those transmitting the largest relative percentage of frames. The chart can be customized to show the “top ten” stations based on a different station information field. The Bar and Pie buttons toggle the type of graphic display. The Pause/Resume button allows you to pause or resume real-time update of the graph.

Table

Application Layer Host Table View as a table shows network activity from the view of application protocols running on network stations. The table lists all application protocols found on each network station. Each network station may have many application protocols in use. The table lists statistics of all applications within the stations found. The table can be customized to include other columns of information. Table columns listed in italics are the default Application Layer Host Table View columns.

Press the right mouse button on any table entry to create a filter using the selected application layer host. See Chapter 7 for information on filters.
