ABSTRACT:
A traffic analyzer (16) for a local area network (10) having multiple stations (14) that exchange message packets (24) receives selected ones of the message packets (24). The analyzer (16) stores a message packet table (TABLE(0)-TABLE(6)) and generates a table pointer (P) as a function of both the source address (S) and the destination address (D) of each received packet (24). A record (S,D,N) of each received packet (24) is stored in the table entry (TABLE(P)) associated with the table pointer value (P) for the respective received packet (24), where N is equal to the number of received packets having the source address S and the destination address D.
