Ethernet Logging Filters
Up to 16 Ethernet filters are also available. The filters are logically OR’d
together and can filter on the IP address, frame attribute such as good
frames, bad FCS frames, runts, jabbers and dribbles. Up to 48
bytes in the data field can also be used as a filter criteria.
Node Discovery
The node discovery feature allows the Signaling Advisor to detect new
nodes that have been connected to the network and adds it to its
internal node list. The node list contains the following information:
• MAC (Medium Access Control) addresses
• Network addresses (IP, IPX, AppleTalk, DECnet, OSI CLNP)
• Node names (DNS name and address)
Decodes
Every frame captured can be decoded with details on each field,
summary of key fields and hexadecimal decode.
Protocol Vitals
For the MAC layer and each protocol stack, protocol vitals show
cumulative measurements and trends over time. Measurements are made
simultaneously, with current, average and peak values. The last
60 samples can be displayed graphically and user- defined thresholds can
be applied.
Eight types of LAN Measurements
The Fast Ethernet Interface and software provides real- time and post-
capture analysis of Ethernet protocols. There are also eight built- in
analysis tools:
• Expert analyzer
• Node statistics
• Node and connection statistics
• Protocol stack statistics
• Protocol commentators
• Node discovery
• Protocol Vitals
• Decodes
Automatic Negotiation
The automatic negotiation function configures the physical interface for
line rate and connection.
