Port. The Source Port from which the initiating system sent the communication.  

Hostname. The system's host name. 

OS. The system's operating system.

. Resolves the values in the IP Address and/or Hostname fields.

If resolution is successful, TLC updates these fields with the new value(s).

Otherwise, TLC enters N/A. 

. Adds a new host to the Event Database based on the information in this tab. (If the database already contains the host, this button is disabled.)

Destination Address

If the communication Event was received by an IP address in the Dst IP field and the IP address is in the Hosts group in the Event-Database Viewer (see Working with the Event-Database Viewer), this tab presents the following fields. (Otherwise, the Destination Address tab is disabled.)

IP Address. The IP address in the Dst IP field (i.e., the system that received the communication).

Port. The Destination Port on which the system received the communication. 

Hostname. The system's hostname. 

OS. The system's operating system.

. Resolves the values in the IP Address and/or Hostname fields.

If resolution is successful, TLC updates these fields with the new value(s).

Otherwise, TLC enters N/A. 

. Adds a new host to the Event Database based on the information in this tab. (If the database already contains the host, this button is disabled.)
