* Storage device to use: If a storage device is available, the first one is selected by default. Otherwise the system disc is used to store the packet comparison information. The approximate amount of storage space required is shown below the selection box. | * Storage device to use: If a storage device is available, the first one is selected by default.

<u>IMPORTANT NOTE:</u> The configuration values for packet rate and packet delay can be adjusted to reflect the actual parameters of the given PCAP files. The values are in relation to packet time of the PCAP files, not real time. So the packet rate does not correlate with the actual processing speed (which might be higher or lower than the packet rate within the PCAP files). The packet rate should be adjusted if the debug value "Packets processed too early" is non-zero. The default packet delay is set to 1 second to reduce the amount of memory required but should be adjusted to the expected maximum delay within the PCAP recording. | <u>IMPORTANT NOTE 1:</u> The configuration values for packet rate and packet delay can be adjusted to reflect the actual parameters of the given PCAP files.

<u>IMPORTANT NOTE 2:</u> If time stamp adjustment is used, all time stamps from the client file are adjusted which affects the analysis, but also the capture of these packets. So when doing a capture from that client file data, the packet time stamps are no longer the original timestamps but adjusted by the configured time delta. | |||
