SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. On a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer, you run a program that uses Network Monitor APIs to capture the network throughput of a TCP/IP session. When the program calls the IStats::GetTotalStatistics method to obtain the statistics of the current network throughput capture, the values that are returned in the TotalBytesFiltered and TotalBytesCaptured fields are much smaller than expected. The returned values are much smaller than the actual bytes that are filtered and captured when the program filters an IP address pair.

MORE INFORMATION
The IStats interface is part of the Network Monitor APIs. This interface provides the methods that you use to do the following tasks:
 * Connect a Network Packet Provider (NPP) to the network
 * Capture network traffic
 * Retrieve statistics
 * Disconnect the NPP from the network

The IStats interface generates statistics without frames.

The IStats::GetTotalStatistics method is an IStats interface that retrieves the total statistics for the current network throughput capture. The IStats::GetTotalStatistics method has an OUT pointer to a STATISTICS structure that provides the total statistics. TotalBytesFiltered and TotalBytesCaptured are fields of this STATISTICS structure.
