Using the Matrix Tab
Raw Capture Mode Postcapture Analysis
The Matrix tab collects statistics for conversations between network
nodes. For LANs, the matrix tab accumulates MAC, IP network, IP
application, IPX network, and IPX transport-layer information. For WAN
traces, the matrix tab accumulates link layer (for example, DLCI), IP
network, IP application, IPX network, and IPX transport-layer
information.
By selecting one of the toolbar buttons, you can view traffic as a traffic
map, as an outline or detail table, or as bar or pie charts showing Top
10 statistics.
The traffic map in the figure provides a graphical view of network
traffic patterns between network nodes.
The matrix tables show traffic statistics for conversations. The table
may be sorted by any of its statistical variables, in either ascending
or descending order.
To sort a column, click on the column heading. Click a second time to
sort in reverse order. See Using the Matrix Tab Toolbar on page 210 for
information about viewing the Matrix Tab data in a variety of formats.
