● In the toolbar, set the threshold value and type.
or
1 Select Properties➤Data Collection Properties…

3 Choose the type of threshold.
4 Set the threshold value.
Thresholding determines the number of end-to-end (network-layer)
traffic reports or conversations that are retrieved from each data source,
thus determining how many nodes and lines are displayed in the inter-
network view.
The threshold property also determines the impact Internetwork Mon-
itor has on the network when viewing live data. For best results, specify
a threshold that significantly limits the number of reports that are
retrieved.
Figure 40 shows the threshold parameters on the toolbar; figure 39 on
page 194 shows the parameters in the data collection properties window.
