This is a tree of all the protocols in the capture. You can collapse or expand subtrees, by clicking on
the plus / minus icons. By default, all trees are expanded.
Each row contains the statistical values of one protocol.
The following columns containing the statistical values are available:
• Protocol this protocol's name
• % Packets the percentage of protocol packets, relative to all packets in the capture
• Packets the absolute number of packets of this protocol
• Bytes the absolute number of bytes of this protocol
• MBit/s the bandwidth of this protocol, relative to the capture time
• End Packets the absolute number of packets of this protocol (where this protocol were the
highest protocol to decode)
• End Bytes the absolute number of bytes of this protocol (where this protocol were the highest
protocol to decode)
• End MBit/s the bandwidth of this protocol, relative to the capture time (where this protocol
were the highest protocol to decode)
