==''' Module settings'''==
==''' Module settings'''==
Some measurement modules have separate settings that influence the level of information measured.


<big>''' Capture traffic'''</big>
<big>''' Capture traffic'''</big>
A detailed description about the capture module configuration settings can be found in :Capture module.


<big>''' IP statistics'''</big>
<big>''' IP statistics'''</big>
The IP module can be configured to store less information for significant less memory usage and slightly better performance.
* Store connection information for every IP: This option is enabled
  by default. When enabled, the IP measurement module stores every
  connection for each IP. This includes historical packet counter so
  you can see for individual connection at which time the connection
  transferred which amount of data. Connection data will be stored as
  long as possible regarding the total memory usage.
  Disabling this option will increase the minimum storage time
  significantly.
* Store layer 7 protocol information for every IP: The
  network protocols and their historical traffic data is stored for
  each IP if this option is enabled.
  Disabling this option will increase the minimum storage time
  slightly.
* Track number of new connections for every IP: When this option is enabled,
  TCP connections per IP will be tracked. Connections are divided into valid
  and invalid connections for server and client direction and the amount is
  shown.
  Disabling this option will increase the minimum storage time
  slightly.
* Store traffic history graph for IP peers: This option allows enabling or
  disabling the traffic history graph that is shown per peer in the "Peers"
  tab for an IP.
  Disabling this option will increase the minimum storage time
  slightly.
* Enable RTP measurement: This option allows enabling or disabling of RTP
  related statistics that are shown in the "RTP statistics" tab for an IP. Jitter
  and MOS calculation in the :Sip module` also depends on this switch.
  Disabling this option will increase the minimum storage time slightly.


<big>'''Interface and MAC throughput'''</big>
<big>'''Interface and MAC throughput'''</big>
The throughput measurement module can measure interface throughput with a configurable
resolution. The module can report its measurements via IPFIX or generate incidents
as soon as a configured threshold exceeds.
It can be configured as follows:
* '''Duration of one measurement interval in milliseconds''': The measurement interval
  in milliseconds. For each interval all packets are aggregated until the
  interval duration is over and a new interval starts.
