Display Filters and Searching

Display filtering and searching lets the user search through collected data to

find specific IP addresses, values for protocol fields, or conversations on

specific bi-directional virtual connections (by DLCI). The display filters

provide the flexibility to select protocol attributes or specific protocols from

a checklist, and the power to filter on any bit, byte or characteristic, such as

protocol. For example, anyone can filter on Annex D without having to

know any of the protocol specifics.

Post-processing allows the user quickly zoom in on selected criteria, from the

traffic passing between specific devices to individual conversations. With

post-processing, the user can do the following:

• Search through the data by record or by time stamp

• Search for events or strings

• Filter on protocols

• Verify event-to-event timing

• Search and view protocol errors

• Print a range of cells or the entire buffer to printer or ASCII file

• Export data in CSV (comma separated variables) format

• Analyze statistics based on the buffered data

User Assisted LAN over Frame Relay Filtering

The User Assisted LAN over Frame Relay allows the user to perform LAN

filtering and searching on LAN nodes, Layer 3 protocols, and IP source and

destination addresses as depicted in figure 19.
