2. Once the edit menu is displayed then the following options are available:-

-Resolve Host Name
-The Display Format can be either a Chart or Table
-Top Entries to Show the default value being 10, this can be modified to values 5, 10, 20, or 25
-An automatic Refresh Interval with the default being 0 which means the refresh interval is disabled by default, this can be modified between 10-240 seconds giving an Administrator the visibility on bandwidth usage per-IP sessions.
