A window opens that displays the packets captured on port 2 when port 1 transmitted its packet
stream. You have just captured your first packet stream.
Filters and Triggers
Comprehensive filters and triggers allow to capture and count received packets based on configurable
matching conditions such as destination address, source address, data payload pattern matches, and
packet error types. There is a trigger to start capture, and filter to define what is allowed into the
capture buffer once the trigger occurs. There are also four user-definable statistics counters that may
be configured using the same matching conditions as the trigger and filter definitions. Double-click the
Filter, Statistics, Receive Mode option in the right pane. The dialog box as shown in the following
figure appears.

Statistics
The Statistics feature of IxExplorer allows to view all or a subset of the statistics available for chassis
ports. Statistics for multiple ports can be displayed side-by-side for greater insight into overall traffic
patterns. To view the statistics for a single port, double-click Statistics under the port on the pane as
shown in the following figure.
