The following columns are hidden by default. They can be shown through the Modify columns
dialog opened from the context menu (for details, see chapter 3.2).
Source port, Destination port
Source and destination port (only for TCP and UDP protocols).
Protocol
Protocol used for the transmission (TCP, UDP, etc.).
Timeout
Timeleft before the connection will be removed from the table of WinRoute’s connections.
Each new packet within this connection sets timeout to the initial value. If no data is
transmitted via a particular connection, WinRoute removes the connection from the ta-
ble upon the timeout expiration — the connection is closed and no other data can be
transmitted through it.
Rx, Tx
Volume of incoming (Rx) and outgoing (Tx) data transmitted through a particular connec-
tion (in KB).
Info
Additional information (such as a method and URL in case of HTTP protocol).
Use the Show DNS names option to enable/disable showing of DNS names instead of IP ad-
dresses in the Source and Destination columns. If a DNS name for an IP address cannot be
resolved, the IP address is displayed.
You can click on the Colors button to open a dialog where colors used in this table can be set.
Note:
1. Upon right-clicking on a connection, the context menu extended by the Kill connection
option is displayed. This option can be used to kill the particular connection between the
LAN and the Internet immediately.
2. The selected host’s overview of connections lists only connections established from the
particular host to the Internet and vice versa. Local connections established between the
particular host and the firewall can be viewed only in Status →Connections (see chap-
ter 19.2). Connections between hosts within the LAN are not routed through WinRoute,
and therefore they cannot be viewed there.
Histogram
The Histogram tab provides information on data volume transferred from and to the selected
host in a selected time period. The chart provides information on the load of this host’s traffic
on the Internet line through the day.
