This option ignores the statistics-only data at the beginning of your selected stream by forcing the Data start time to the first instance of packet data in the stream. After the stream has wrapped, Sniffer Adaptive Application Analyzer begins replacing packet data in a first-in-first-out (FIFO) manner, the leading history data will be hidden when this option is active. However, you may still see sections of history data in your stream because the FIFO algorithm does not always reclaim the oldest data, giving priority to leastrecently-used (LRU) data over those sections of data you analyzed. Figure 10-1. General Tab The File Path Display option lets you enable or disable the capture file (.cap) path from appearing in the Navigation panel. By default the path is shown. NOTE: This release of Sniffer Adaptive Application Analyzer does not support adding .CAP files to the Navigation Panel for Quick Select analysis. You can, however, open them directly using File > Open.

EARLY FIELD TRIAL Setting Quick Select Options The Top N option lets you specify the setting for Top N filtering. The Top N feature provides a way to optimize Console performance. Instead of downloading all data for the period selected in the Graph panel, you can set a Top N value to limit the number of unique conversation records transferred to the Top N. Alternatively, you can enable the All option so that all conversation records are transferred. See Working with the Top N Feature on page 95 for important details on how this feature works. Setting Connection Tab Options Set the following options from the Connection tab: Figure 10-2. Connection Tab The Connection Timeout option lets you limit the length of time the Console attempts connection to the local agent before aborting. The default setting is 5 seconds. User’s Guide 245
