Detail

The Detail tab provides low-level information about the network connection, including IP addresses, HTTP version, TLS/SSL details, certificate information, DNS resolution, and size breakdown. This is invaluable for debugging connection issues and understanding network behavior.

Connection

Basic information about the TCP connection between Tigrister and the server:

FieldDescriptionExample
Remote AddressServer IP address and port93.184.216.34:443 (IPv4)
Local AddressYour machine's IP and port for this connection192.168.1.5:54321 (IPv4)
HTTP VersionProtocol version used for the requestHTTP/2, HTTP/1.1
ConnectionWhether an existing connection was reusedReused or New
Example Display
Remote Address93.184.216.34:443 (IPv4)
Local Address192.168.1.5:54321 (IPv4)
HTTP VersionHTTP/2
ConnectionReused
Connection Reuse: When a connection is reused, TCP handshake and TLS handshake times will be 0 ms. This significantly improves performance for subsequent requests to the same server.

TLS / SSL

For HTTPS connections, this section shows the encryption details. This section only appears for secure connections.

FieldDescriptionExample Values
TLS VersionProtocol version used for encryptionTLS 1.3, TLS 1.2
Cipher SuiteEncryption algorithm negotiatedTLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
TLS Version Reference
VersionStatusNotes
TLS 1.3RecommendedMost secure, fastest handshake
TLS 1.2AcceptableStill secure with proper cipher suites
TLS 1.1DeprecatedShould be avoided if possible
TLS 1.0InsecureKnown vulnerabilities

Certificate

For HTTPS connections, detailed information about the server's SSL certificate. This helps verify the server's identity and check certificate validity.

Subject

Information about the certificate owner (the server):

Common Name (CN)*.example.com
Organization (O)Example Inc.
Issuer

Information about the Certificate Authority (CA) that signed the certificate:

Common Name (CN)DigiCert Global G2 TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1
Organization (O)DigiCert Inc
Validity

The time period during which the certificate is valid:

Valid From2024-01-15T00:00:00Z
Valid To2025-01-15T23:59:59Z
Fingerprint

Unique identifiers for the certificate:

Serial Number0A:1B:2C:3D:4E:5F:6A:7B:8C:9D
SHA-256 FingerprintA1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6:78:90:AB:CD:EF:01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF:01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF:01:23:45:67:89
Certificate Details: Use this information to verify server identity and check certificate validity. Tigrister displays certificate details for all HTTPS connections.

DNS

Domain Name System resolution information:

Resolved IP93.184.216.34
DNS CacheHit
Cache StatusMeaningPerformance Impact
HitIP address was found in local DNS cacheDNS lookup time is near zero
MissIP address was resolved from DNS serverAdds DNS lookup time to total
Tip: Tigrister caches DNS results to speed up subsequent requests. The first request to a domain will show "Miss", while follow-up requests typically show "Hit".

Size Breakdown

Detailed breakdown of data transferred in both directions:

Request
Headers342 B
Body1.2 KB
Total1.5 KB
Response
Headers512 B
Body24.5 KB
Total25.0 KB
Understanding Size Metrics
Headers: HTTP headers including method, path, content-type, authentication, and other metadata.
Body: The actual payload. For requests, this is data you're sending (JSON, form data, files). For responses, this is the content returned by the server.
Total: Combined size of headers and body. This represents actual bytes transferred over the network.
Compression: Response body size shown is the uncompressed size. If the server uses gzip or brotli compression, actual bytes transferred may be smaller than displayed.

Copying Values

All values in the Detail tab can be selected and copied. Tigrister uses smart copy handling that works with both keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl/Cmd+C) and context menu copying.
