+Network monitor recording
+=========================
+
+You can pause and resume the monitoring of network traffic using the pause button.
+
+Pausing and resume network traffic recording
+********************************************
+
+The Network Monitor has a button that pauses and resumes recording of the current page's network traffic. This is useful in situations where, for example, you are trying to get a stable view of a page for debugging purposes, but under normal circumstances the view keeps evolving due to persistent network requests. The pause button allows you to look at a certain snapshot.
+
+The button can be found at the far left of the main Network Monitor toolbar, and looks like a typical pause button — |image1|.

+
+You can see it here in context:
+
+.. image:: play-pause-network-traffic.png
+ :class: border
+
+Once pressed, the button changes to a play icon, and you can toggle network traffic recording back on by pressing it again.
