FibreChannel Protocol Exporter Right-Hand Dialog
The FibreChannel Protocol Exporter right-hand dialog provides detailed controls for synchronizing and sending
your data to the Protocol Analyzer.
FibreChannel Decode Trace Annotations
Like all trace annotations, FibreChannel Decode annotations are rectangular shadings used to highlight messages
on decoded waveforms for easy viewing.
Tip: Data packets (or messages) on properly decoded protocol signals can be viewed using Serial Decode Trace
Annotations (on page 18), the Protocol Results Table (on page 19), and/or by Searching for Messages (on
page 21) (Types and Subtypes). Using these tools together provides fast insight to your data. See Serial Decode
Trace Annotations (on page 18) for more information.
Messages shown as annotations, table columns, and search types for most protocols are classified into Frames,
Errors, Unknown, or Grouped Primitives specific to the protocol. Sub Types then further classify each main
message type into more protocol-specific messages.
Decode annotations unique to FibreChannel include the following (some annotations are not shown in the
screen-shot):
