Thanks for the info, I am a little confused on the
differences between Conversion List vs EndPoint List
and how IP4 would differ from TCP (IPv4 & IPv6).

An IP conversation is between IP addresses (e.g. 1.2.3.4), a TCP conversation is between TCP ports (e.g. 80).

And a conversation catches between a specific address pair, an endpoint catches everything to *or* from a specific address.
