The Physical Endpoint view will not be available when you select IP address nodes on the Physical Explorer or any nodes on the IP Explorer.The Physical Endpoint view hierarchically shows statistics of the network traffic on the basis of MAC addresses or node groups of MAC address, to help you find useful information on MAC addresses. For example, you can find the physical endpoints with the largest traffic volume or check if there is any broadcast storm or multicast storm on the network.
