Matrix

Unique to Javvin Packet Analyzer enterprise edition. The Matrix view includes individual tools to customize the display types of network traffic. This lets you quickly create a picture of all the traffic or sending/receiving traffic. The nodes around an elongated ellipse display the hosts in your network, the line weight present the volume of traffic between nodes. The green color reveals the traffic is transmitting current now and the black color displays the transmission is completed by default. When you drag nodes to a new position, the connecting lines rubber-band. Javvin Packet Analyzer will popup a notice if the captured nodes exceed 1000.
