78 The Statistics Menu
• IP Subprotocols by Station sub-mode parameters option buttons—allows you to
configure the display of the port by port data: either by number of packets or by
number of bytes.
• Modify Network Trending and Internet Observer TCP/IP Subprotocols button—
clicking this button displays the list of protocols to use for the IP Subprotocols
submode tab. Twelve (12) subprotocols can be defined.
Internet Patrol Tab
Internet Patrol displays MAC address to layer 3 IP address traffic. If the MAC
address has an alias assigned, this text will be displayed instead of the true MAC
address. Additionally, the IP addresses of the destination sites will be resolved using
DNS.
This view of your Internet traffic is most appropriate for local network traffic to and
from the Internet, and for sites that use DHCP. Since DHCP changes IP addresses
frequently, source IP addresses are not useful on DHCP site for identification.
