== File storage ==
The Network Multimeter will initially show the top level directory of the storage partition. By clicking on a directory name the view can be switched to the contents of that sub-directory. This will also show the path of the current directory above the table along with a button that allows to change back to the parent directory.


Working with storage contents
Generic files which are not packet capture (pcap) files, will show with two buttons next to them. As the names suggest the '''Delete button''' will delete the file from the storage device and the '''Download button''' will start a browser download of this file.

Next to packet capture (pcap) files, an additional '''Analyze PCAP''' button will show. When this button is pressed the Network Multimeter will either reset all statistics and start analyzing the packet capture file or enables to start a parallel PCAP analysis if this is configured (see  [[Parallel packet processing]]). Progress, statistics and the option to resume normal operation will appear at the top of the Storage page.
