The Allegro 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.
The Allegro 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.


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.
The following actions for files and directories are available through the following buttons in the same row:


Next to packet capture (pcap) files, an additional '''Analyze PCAP''' button will show. When this button is pressed the Allegro 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.
* '''Analyze PCAP''' or '''Analyze all PCAP files''': will be shown for packet capture files or directories respectively. If '''Analyze PCAP''' is pressedthe Allegro 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. '''Analyze all PCAP files''' will do the same thing but for all packet capture files residing in the directory together.
* '''Webshark preview''': will be shown for packet capture files and, if pressed, opens a Wireshark-like preview of the file.
* '''Rename''': will open a dialog that allows to rename the file or directory.
* '''Delete''': removes the file or directory with all its contents from the storage device.
* '''Download''': starts a browser download of this file.


The '''New directory''' button opens as dialog that can be used to create a new sub-directory in the currently shown directory. Sub-directories can be used as target for storing packet captures (see [[Capture module#Capture settings dialog|Capture settings dialog]]).
