Node Label Indicates the format for node labels and for nodes in the data report.
Choose any or all of the following:
Host Name translates addresses to names. Example: bigbird.hp.com.
If the name is not available (via gethostbyname or the sysnodelist
file), MAC address format is used.
Network Address shows the node’s network-layer address. Examples:
128.204.1.20, 120:14. Network address formats are listed in table 23.
MAC Address translates the first three bytes of the address to the
manufacturer name and displays the remainder of the address as
hexadecimal bytes. Examples: HP_08:0F:62, Sun_12:08:03. If the
manufacturer is unknown to NetMetrix, then the entire address is
displayed in hexadecimal.
Data shows the traffic data as part of the node label.
