Hello,
I have a question about the stream follower, after following a TCP stream at the bottom of the frame there is output that looks like:
7 client pkts, 145 server pkts, 6 turns
What does it mean when it says 6 turns?
Thanks -Bob
It's a measure of how "chatty" the "conversation" is on that stream.
If the Follow TCP Stream window is showing client and server, it is the number of times the text color changes.
(That's not very scientific and not how the code calculates the count but pretty easy to visualize)
Here are two examples from the Wiki Sample Catures:
http.cap - A simple HTTP request and response
telnet-cooked.pcap (libpcap) - A telnet session in "cooked" (per-line) mode
Thank you, I thought that was what it might be but couldn't find a description in the documentation.
Cheers -Bob
