TDS module
The TDS module shows information about TDS (Tabular Data Stream) traffic, used for database connections with Microsoft SQL Servers. Detected connections between clients and SQL servers are shown.
Connections
All TDS connections with their client and server IPs and ports are shown together with the recognized TDS version. If the Timing toggle is activated, the start and end time, as well as the duration of the connection will be visible. Common traffic counters for total packets and bytes, as well as traffic rate counters for packets per second and bit per second can be selected with the Counters toggle. The connection quality can be evaluated in the TCP specific columns: the Response times toggle enables the view of TCP handshake time separated for client and server, as well as maximum and average response times. Retransmissions (in byte and as a percentage of the total traffic), missed bytes and duplicated ACK-packets are shown when the TCP Retransmissions toggle is enabled.
When enabled, graphs for bitrate and packet rate (individually selectable) are shown. The TDS traffic of each connection can be captured using the PCAP download button.
