PCAP Replay (server)

The server is the responding side of the replay. The server always operates in stateful mode, so the stateless/stateful switch is not displayed. The server does not have Targets, Total sessions, CPS, PPS, or the client-side Custom Rules section, which applies only to stateless mode.
