Selecting Data to Graph
License: 
Any
You can display different data on a connection graph by changing either the x-axis, the y-axis, or both.
Note that on a pie chart, changing the x-axis changes the independent variable and changing the y-axis 
changes the dependent variable. For example, consider a pie chart that graphs kilobytes per port. In this 
case, the x-axis is 
Responder Port
 and the y-axis is 
KBytes
. This pie chart represents the total kilobytes of 
data transmitted over a monitored network during a certain interval. The wedges of the pie represent the 
percent of the data that was detected on each port. If you change the x-axis of the chart to 
Application 
Protocol
, the pie chart still represents the total kilobytes of data transmitted, but the wedges of the pie 
represent the percentage of the data transmitted for each detected application protocol.
However, if you change the y-axis of the first pie chart to 
Packets
, the pie chart represents the total 
number of packets transmitted over the monitored network during a certain interval, and the wedges of 
the pie represent the percentage of the total number of packets that was detected on each port.
Follow the directions in the following table to change the x-axis of a connection graph.
