The Load Overview chart (**ANALYZE > Overview > IP Traffic > Load Overview**) presents an overview of communication to servers, ports and applications as well as from subnets and Citrix servers. It also lets you quickly identify the most used processes.

- **Type**: Determines the type of information shown on the pie chart:
  - *Servers*: Lists servers accessed by computers.
  - *Processes*: Lists processes used by computers.
:::caution
IP data process information is not collected on computers that run Windows XP.
:::
- - *Ports*: Lists ports accessed by computers.
  - *Services*: Lists server:port combinations accessed by computers.
  - *Subnets (outgoing traffic)*: List client subnets that have accessed servers.
  - *Citrix Servers (outgoing traffic)*: List Citrix servers that have accessed servers.

- **Show top # only**: By default only the top 20 entities are shown, but you can change this if required. Note that the last 5 % is always grouped together as a single pie slice named *The Rest*.
- **Agents**: Filter on computers. Select a specific group of computers or *All agents*.
- **Servers**: Filter on servers. Select *All Servers*, *All Monitored Servers* or a specific server or server group.
- **Data Type**: Determines the type of data by which the pie chart is ordered. The option *Unavailability* means the number of requests that didn't receive a response.
- **Interval**: Select which time interval the pie chart should be based on. If the predefined intervals don't suit you, select **Custom** to [Custom Time Periods on Graphs](/performanceguard/analyze/custom-time-periods-on-graphs/).

:::caution
If your time interval is longer than four hours, and you have only selected monitored servers, the pie chart will be calculated based on hourly trend data.

- **Advanced Mode**: Check this to show the **Exclude top** field.
- **Exclude top**: Exclude the top n items from the pie chart. This can be useful if the first item covers nearly 100% of the chart.
