Channel
Settings
These options allow you to inhibit recording on a channel by channel basis.
Inhibit - Inhibits recording of traffic from selected channels. For example, if you check
the option for T1, it means "record all channels except for Target channel 1 (T1)."
By selecting the "Advanced Options" tab, the following screen is displayed:
Tracker
Sweeping
Under Tracker Sweeping, the user may select whether to enable sweeping and the
sweeping interval. "Sweeping" refers to the rate at which SASTracker checks for
incomplete commands which have exceeded the timeout trigger period. The SASTracker
BusEngine divides available processing time between the tasks of (a) processing
incoming commands and command terminations, and (b) monitoring for any commands
that have exceeded the trigger timeout period. If the incoming traffic has a large number
of very short commands with little data interspersed, or has a large number of complex
command termination situations where multiple commands are ended with a single
event, more time may be needed for command processing in order to keep up with the
command flow. In such situations, the user can increase the interval of tracker sweeping
to allow a larger portion of processing time to go towards command processing.
Note: If Tracker Sweeping is disabled but the Timeout Trigger mode is
selected, the SASTracker system will still trigger when a Command
End Event occurs that exceeds the defined Timeout Trigger value.
However, in this situation the system will not be able to detect a
timeout trigger due to commands that never receive a Command
End Event (i.e., lost commands).
