Hi,

How does Ethereal generate the plot? Does it:
A) Count the number of bytes/packets over a small sample duration every second or so, or does it
B) Calaculate a continuous average rate and plot the value of that average every second or so?

If you could shed some light on this it would help me to explain what I am seeing.

Thanks,

Jonathan
