Little Snitch can store geographic coordinates for each network, which makes them easier to identify. Save geolocations of networks - The list of known networks contains all the technical details stored for each network, but the names may be cryptic, so you often cannot remember which network is which.If you really want to assign a specific profile to a new network (which differs from the default), you need to do it manually. With this option, you can set a default action which is performed instead of showing an alert. This may be annoying if you are traveling a lot, connecting to new networks often. Default action - When you join a network not yet known to Little Snitch, it shows a New Network Alert.Enable automatic profile switching - Whether automatic profile switching is enabled at all.The number you configure here is not the total number of (expanded) rows in the connection list because each row represents a class of connections (with potentially different ports and Internet addresses). If the limit is exceeded, the oldest connections for each process are merged into an Older Connections entry so that we collect at least the total statistics for each process. We therefore limit the number of connection statistics stored. There is no time limit, so the amount of data stored could eat up your computer’s resources. Capacity - Little Snitch stores statistics for all connections with distinct properties (see section ).It places My Location in the middle of the country configured there. For privacy reasons, Little Snitch determines your current location from your Language and Region Preferences by default.
#LITTLE SNITCH 5 UPDATE#
Automatically update my location in map - Whether to use Apple Location Services to determine where the My Location mark is drawn. Data rate unit - The unit in which data rates are displayed in the status menu or in Network Monitor – either Bytes per second (B/s) or Bits per second (bps). Color scheme - Whether to display traffic rates in color (red for upload, green for download) or monochrome. Show data rates as numerical values - With this option turned on the status menu shows numerical data rates in addition to the traffic meter. Show network activity in menu bar - Whether the status menu icon should display current data rates and blocked connections. Keyboard shortcut - A global keyboard shortcut to show and hide Little Snitch Network Monitor. Note that Little Snitch ignores keystrokes for the first second after the alert appears to catch most of these accidental keystrokes. Some people prefer to use the mouse only, because they may be typing text when the alert appears, typing Return or Escape accidentally. Confirm with Return and Escape - Whether Allow and Deny can be triggered via keyboard. You could answer it yourself, if you could get around this single first alert… When you set up an alert timeout, you can answer alerts while you are in front of your computer and have them allowed or denied automatically with default settings when you are away. Confirm connection alert automatically - When you use “Back to my Mac” to log in to your computer remotely, it is frustrating to be locked out just because Little Snitch is stalling your login, waiting for somebody to answer a connection alert, but nobody is at home. Here you can decide what the defaults are, so that you can quickly create your preferred type of rule. Some prefer to make all rules temporary in the first place, some make domain rules only, while others always make their rules as specific as possible. Preselected Options - People have preferences what type of rule to create when a connection alert is shown. Whatever you choose here, when you click the Connection Details button, all details are shown and all rule creation options become available. Having too many details distracts from the relevant information, but some people prefer to see them. 
Detail Level - How many details about the connection are shown by default and how many rule creation options are shown.
This option can also be changed in the status menu. Operation Mode - Choose between Alert Mode and Silent Mode here.
Show inactivity warning in menu bar - With this option turned on the status menu displays a yellow warning triangle when the network filter is off. Show status in menu bar - Choose whether the status menu shall be displayed. It can also be turned on via the status menu. In demo mode, without a valid license, Little Snitch deactivates the filter every three hours and you need to manually turn it on again. This can be helpful if something does not work as expected and you want to know whether one of your Little Snitch rules is the cause. Network Filter - You can turn off the entire network filter here.
