Filtering Incoming Packets
Creating filter rules
With the software, you can filter incoming packets by setting conditions
on one of the properties of the packet’s header. You can create your own
filter rules by selecting Tools > Packet Filter. The Packet Filtering dialog
box opens.
To create your own filter rule, you need to:
• Name the rule.
• Specify the header’s property on which you want to apply the rule,
that means, select:
– The type of packet
– The header, which depends on the selected type of packet
– The property itself, which depends on the selected header
• Specify the testing value.
Associating filter rules
You can associate several rules by using logical operators like &&, ||
and/or !: Click Edit in Packet Filtering dialog box.
The following figure gives an example of associated filter rules: Only IBA
packets coming on the VL 0 and for which the DLID is set to 0x1234 or
0x4321 appear in the Packet Log window.
