All IP addresses are seen and registered. Discovery mechanism eliminates the effort required to configure the tool each time it is used on a new network. The LAN Map functions as both a network management and troubleshooting tool by providing a graphical presentation of the network, protocols in use, activity and conversation lines. Green lines indicate a good two-way conversation without errors. Blue lines indicate a single-sided conversation, for example a broadcast or multicast.
Red lines indicate a conversation containing errors.
The lines thicken to indicate which conversations have the heaviest usage. Simply right mouse click on the errored node and you can view conversations within the LAN Map on a discreet basis de-multiplexed by protocol. View and produce a graphical report on individual node contribution to LAN traffic. Trace, filter and decode conversations by protocol to and from errored nodes. Protocol filters are automatically set up.
