1474.0. "Filter and Probewatch" by GIDDAY::STANISLAUS () Mon Sep 26 1994 03:36

    
    
    	I want to capture using Probewatch for Windows and Packetprobe 90,
    Ethernet Packets between two MAC address for a packet type of 60-06.
    
    	I cannot find from the user manual how I specify a particular
    packet type although the manual on page 6-4 under filter list says you
    can have user-defined filters. How and where do I define my own filters
    for packet type.

	60-06 sounds like a standard protocol (I can't remember which at the moment), so you should be able to use VIEW on the Filter Editor screen to find the Filter name. If your version of PROBEwatch doesn't have a Filter editor, then copy the latest eval kit from NAC::NIPG:[MANAGE.RMON.WINDOWS.DISK1] .DISK2 .DISK3 etc If there is no 60-06 filter existing, then use the ADD button on the Filter Editor screen to add it and give it a name. Then, if you want to view conversation statistics between the two nodes, you will have to add a Domain that includes this Filter. (A Domain may already exist - use the Domain Editor to look at Filters used). Once you have installed this domain on the DECpacketprobe, and enabled the HOST and Conversation groups, you can look for either Host in the Host table and zoom in on it to see the conversations with that packet type.
