When you first start Sniffer Adaptive Application Analyzer, the Graph
and Statistics panels are both empty. Open a network interface for
monitoring to start statistics collection:

NOTE: Note that the console assigns a color and letter to the
interface. The letter indicates the order in which the interfaces were
opened (for example, the first interface is assigned the letter A).
These designations are used for stream merging and are cosmetic
in this release – only a single network interface is supported.
Once the first bucket of statistics is collected, click either the Next Time
Selection or Current Time button above the Graph Panel to
populate it with bars illustrating the progress of statistics collection
(Figure 3-3).
