Launching Other Tools

Internetwork Monitor includes the ability to select an item in the inter-

network view, then launch Load Monitor or Protocol Analyzer using the

context of the selected item and the internetwork view properties.

For example, if you select a conversation line in the internetwork view,

then launch Load Monitor, the resulting Load Monitor view automati-

cally shows the Zoom path for Time➤Conversation➤Protocol, with the

conversation selected in Internetwork Monitor also selected in Load

Monitor.

Similarly, if the internetwork view is showing only HTTP trafﬁc, you

select a host, and launch Protocol Analyzer, a packet capture is automat-

ically conﬁgured and started for HTTP trafﬁc to and from the selected

host.

The following pages explain how to launch Load Monitor and Protocol

Analyzer from Internetwork Monitor and give details on the context that

is passed along when the tool is launched.
