sending from if there are more than one on machine and loops times.
Colasoft Capsa provides multiple windows, enabling you to switch
among multiple project views conveniently and easily.
This view will display the reports of global or a specific group,
containing the information of summary, protocols, top 10 addresses
and all available graphs. Besides the defined statistic reports, you
can customize the statistic information you interested in.
The Matrix view includes individual tools to customize the display types of
network traffic, letting you quickly create a picture of all the traffic or
sending/receiving traffic.
From the Diagnoses view, you are not only able
to see the event count by network layer, but also know event-related information
such as source, destination, packet number, etc.
Conversations view
The Conversations view dynamically presents
the real-time status of Physical, IP, TCP and UDP conversations between
pairs of endpoints, the sub-views offer the related packets and reconstructed
stream the active conversation.
Real-time packet decoding
Instantly decodes captured packets and displays detailed decode information
in Hex, ASCII or EBCDIC.
Analysis logs
Presents the records of network communications analyzed by advanced
analyzers, including email messages log, FTP transfers log, HTTP requests
log and DNS analysis log.
Graphs
Graphically display the statistic information of global network or specific
network nodes, providing multiple charts and display options. The unique
compare mode lets you view two different graphs simultaneously.
Summary statistics
Provides general statistic information, including start date/time, general
errors, 802.3 errors, traffic, packet size distribution, and many other
statistics analyzed by multiple analyzers.
Provides the statistics of protocols and sub-protocols used by network
communications.
Flexible project explorer
Includes protocol explorer group, physical explorer group and IP explorer group,
letting you view the current status of each node and quickly switch among
global statistics and the details of specific network nodes.

filters in Colasoft Capsa also allow you to create packet value filters,
packet size filters and packet pattern filers based on the logical rules
of And, Or and Not.
Statistics of error packets
Colasoft Capsa offers the statistics of error packets, including
physical error packets, 802.3 error packets and normal packets.
Summary snapshots
As a means to protect data, the summary snapshots represent the network
state and are helpful for future network analysis.
Statistics of network utilization
Colasoft Capsa offers the statistics of network utilization both in
percentage and graphic way.
Project status
Offers the general statistic information of filters, error packets, captured packets,
buffer usage and more.
Name table
You can create alias for IP addresses, physical addresses or TCP-UDP
ports, resolve IP addresses or host name, set color, and do many other
operations in the name table.
Loopback IP packets
Colasoft Capsa can capture the IP packets sent/received within the local host.
You can print the data selected and have a preview for the print effect before printing.
