-port 7031 - this will set the probe login port to 7031, the default port is 7030.
-card 1 - if you have multiple network interfaces this will select network card number 1.
-r frames.dat 1000 - this will record 1000 network packets to the file frames.dat and the stop
-p frames.dat - will read network packets from the frames.dat file and stop
-home "C:\Program Files\Network Probe 2" - sets the probe home directory if you start it from another directory
-nostart - starts the probe, but not the packet decoding. This is usefull if you have a large network with lots of traffic and need to configure the probe to avoid excess memory usage and CPU load.
-noprom - starts the probe in non-promiscuous mode, meaning that only traffic to/from the probing computer will be picked up. All broadcast traffic is picked up as well.
-silent - the probe will run in silent mode and not send out DNS requests to resolve IP addresses to host names.
-nointerval - starts the probe without interval statistics being collected.
-noip - starts the probe with a NIC not assigned with an IP
-dump - this will dump the packet content to the console. Click here for details.
-stats host,matrix,nlhost,nlmatrix,alhost,almatrix,protocol,network - starts the probe with a limited set of packet decoding
-host - collect statistics about network cards (low memory usage)
-matrix - collect statistics about network card conversations (low memory usage)
-nlhost - collect statistics about hosts (medium memory usage)
-nlmatrix - collect statistics about conversations (medium memory usage)
-alhost - collect statistics about protocols per host (high memory usage)
-almatrix - collect statistics about protocols per conversation (high memory usage)
-protocol - collect statistics about protocols (low memory usage)
-network - collect statistics about the network (low memory usage)
-loadtest - prints out network load statistics. The test takes one minute, and the output can tell if the network is heavily loaded or not - and how diversified the traffic is.
-systray - start the windows systray icon.
-showlog - open the probe log window.
-client - start the client after probe startup.
-resetpassword - resets the password for the admin user.
-verbose - a debug mode. More detailed error messages are shown if the probe has problems.
-import "C:\Program Files\Network Probe1.3\statistics" - imports data from 1.x versions of the probe. This will import data from the probe installation in "C:\Program Files\Network Probe 1.3".
