Github user nickwallen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1207 > @anandsubbu With my current changes, modifying any config setting in the PCAP tab will require restarting both Metron PCAP and Metron REST services--which is necessary since user can change a PCAP-service related property or a PCAP-REST related property (or both) I agree. Since we have pcap properties affecting both the topology and REST on the same tab, we have to restart both services. That could be changed, but I think it is good enough for now. Not a big deal in my opinion.
