Application Layer Host Table

Application Layer Host Table View is available as a chart showing the ten network

The network station address and name are provided in the table or chart. The name
and address will be the same if Surveyor does not have a name table with an
address-to-name correspondence for this station.
Chart

network stations. The ten stations displayed are those transmitting the largest
relative percentage of frames. The chart can be customized to show the “top ten”
stations based on a different station information field. The

Pie
buttons
toggle the type of graphic display. The Pause/Resume button allows you to pause or
resume real-time update of the graph.

of application protocols running on network stations. The table lists all application
protocols found on each network station. Each network station may have many

information. Table columns listed in italics are the default Application Layer Host
Table View columns.
