9. Decoding Traffic

IBTracer has six decode levels: Packets, Transport Functions, Management
Datagrams, Subnet Administration transaction level, Sockets Direct
Protocol level, and SCSI RDMA Protocol level. The first two decode levels
have a hierarchical relationship: Transport Functions are composed of
packets.

The IBTracer default decode/display level is packet, which means that
InfiniBand packets will be displayed when you first view a trace.

9.1 Decoding and Displaying Traffic

You can decode and display traffic through the toolbar or by selecting a
decode level from the Display Options dialog box.

Decoding Via the Toolbar

The decode buttons on the toolbar perform the following functions:

To display, for example, Transport Functions, click

.

Note

Once a decode has been performed, it might be necessary
to scroll through the display to find the decoded MADs
or Transport Functions. You can shorten your search by
first clicking the Hide Link and Hide Training
Sequences
buttons.
