The Peer map view lets you visualize network traffic by displaying nodes and the traffic between the nodes. The lines indicate traffic between two nodes. The relative thickness of the lines indicate the volume of traffic occurring. The nodes themselves can be color-coded and displayed as icons, based on node type and Name Table data.
The parts of the Peer map view are described below.
- Nodes:, Conversations:, Protocols: Displays the number of nodes, conversations, and protocols in the capture.
- Search: Type the text string to search for in the view.
- Unfocus: Select to select/deselect a node of traffic.
- IP: Select the type of filter to apply to the traffic.
- Protocols: Select the type of protocols filter to apply to the traffic. You can choose Protocols or Applications.
