Show tasks from the same point of origin

You can use transaction tracking to identify active tasks with the same origin IP address. The address might be the address of a workstation or a web service. You might do this if you have a number of unresponsive tasks and you are trying to determine if a particular origin point is causing the tasks to hang.
