What is alMatrixTopNProtocolDirLocalIndex?

This object stores a number that identifies which network protocol (like IP, AppleTalk, or IPX) the conversation in this row uses. Network engineers use this to filter traffic analysis reports by specific protocol types to diagnose which protocols are consuming the most bandwidth. For example, the value might be "1" for IP or "5" for IPX, letting you see that 80% of top conversations are HTTP while 15% are legacy NetBIOS.
