  • Protocol ==

    The decision tree branch that lists the protocols that you want to display. By default, this branch is set to Protocol == Any. To modify the protocol list, double-click the branch to open the Expression dialog box: Protocol tab.

  • address **<->**address

    The decision tree branch that lists the computer address pairs that you want to display. By default, this branch is set to Any <-> Any.
