The following setting sections are available:
* [[Global settings]]
 
* [[Module settings]]
==''' Global settings'''==
* [[User defined names]]
 
* [[Management interface settings]]
The Global settings section contains parameters for adjusting the behavior of the system.
* [[Multi-device settings]]
 
* [[Administration]]
The settings are split among multiple tabs, described as follows.
* [[Time settings]]
 
* [[Filter|Ingress Filter]]
 
* [[Module-specific Filter]]
<big>'''Generic Settings'''</big>
* [[Remote access and export]]
 
* [[User Management]]
'''Packet processing mode'''
* [[Firmware update]]
 
* [[License upload]]
This section allows for configuring the main packet processing mode:
 
* Bridge mode: In bridge mode, all received packets will be transmitted again on the corresponding mutual port so that the device can be placed in-line between any network component. The device will be transparent and will not modify the traffic in any way. The additional latency will be typically around or less than 1 millisecond.
 
* Sink mode: In sink mode, packets are only received and not forwarded. This operation mode allows for installation at a mirror port of a switch or when using a network tap to access the network traffic.
The packet processing mode can be changed during run-time.

The Settings sub-menu allows for configuring several system parameters and for updating the system. The Allegro Network Multimeter is designed to work out-of-the-box in most installation scenarios. Therefore there are no mandatory options that must be configured before using the system.
