How to get long time statistics?

0

Hi,

I want to watch network traffic for a long time but I am not interested in every single package but only in statistics like displayed in the IO Graphs window. But I can't find how to do it. If I just let Wireshark run, it blows the memory of my computer and crashes and if I build a ring buffer the IO Graph is always started anew when a file is closed and a new one opened. Is there a way to save the IO Graphs data to a continously written file ? Or is there any other way to do my job?

Thank you very much

Martin

Do you really need the fancy features of the I/O graphs? Assuming not, you might want to look at things on the Tools page like ntop. Or Riverbed's Cascade Pilot product.
