Features and screenshots
Matrix
This view includes individual tools to customize the display types of network traffic, lets you quickly create a picture of all the traffic or sending/receiving traffic. The nodes around an elongated ellipse display the hosts in your network, the lines between two nodes present the traffic between them.
Conversations
This view dynamically presents the real-time status of Physical, IP, TCP and UDP conversations between pairs of endpoints.


Expert Network Diagnosis Module
From the Diagnoses view, you are not only able to see the event count by network layer, but also know event-related information such as source, destination, packet number, etc.

Summary statistics
Provides general statistic information, including start date/time, general errors, 802.3 errors, traffic, packet size distribution, and many other statistics analyzed by multiple analyzers.

Graphs
Graphically display the statistic information of global network or specific network nodes, providing multiple charts and display options. The unique compare mode lets you view two different graphs simultaneously.

Endpoints statistics
Presents the detailed communication statistics of each network endpoint, data is displayed in both percentage and value.

Protocols statistics
Provides the statistics of protocols and sub-protocols used by network communications.
Real-time packet decoding
Instantly decodes captured packets and displays detailed decode information in Hex, ASCII or EBCDIC format.
Statistic Reports
Generates statistic reports, containing the information of summary, protocols, top 10 addresses and all available graphs.
