DESCRIPTION

       Ethereal is a GUI network protocol analyzer.  It lets you interactively
       browse packet data from a live network or from a previously saved cap-
       ture file.  Ethereal’s native capture file format is libpcap format,
       which is also the format used by tcpdump and various other tools.

       Ethereal can read / import the following file formats:

       · libpcap, tcpdump and various other tools using tcpdump’s capture for-
       mat
       · snoop and atmsnoop
       · Shomiti/Finisar Surveyor captures
       · Novell LANalyzer captures
       · Microsoft Network Monitor captures
       · AIX’s iptrace captures
       · Cinco Networks NetXRay captures
       · Network Associates Windows-based Sniffer captures
       · Network General/Network Associates DOS-based Sniffer (compressed or
       uncompressed) captures
       · AG Group/WildPackets EtherPeek/TokenPeek/AiroPeek/EtherHelp/Packet-
       Grabber captures
       · RADCOM’s WAN/LAN analyzer captures
       · Network Instruments Observer version 9 captures
       · Lucent/Ascend router debug output
       · files from HP-UX’s nettl
       · Toshiba’s ISDN routers dump output
       · the output from i4btrace from the ISDN4BSD project
       · traces from the EyeSDN USB S0.
       · the output in IPLog format from the Cisco Secure Intrusion Detection
       System
       · pppd logs (pppdump format)
       · the output from VMS’s TCPIPtrace/TCPtrace/UCX$TRACE utilities
       · the text output from the DBS Etherwatch VMS utility
       · Visual Networks’ Visual UpTime traffic capture
       · the output from CoSine L2 debug
       · the output from Accellent’s 5Views LAN agents
       · Endace Measurement Systems’ ERF format captures
       · Linux Bluez Bluetooth stack hcidump -w traces

       There is no need to tell Ethereal what type of file you are reading; it
       will determine the file type by itself.  Ethereal is also capable of
       reading any of these file formats if they are compressed using gzip.
       Ethereal recognizes this directly from the file; the ’.gz’ extension is
       not required for this purpose.

       Like other protocol analyzers, Ethereal’s main window shows 3 views of
       in other protocol analyzers, and the syntax you can use to create your
       filters is richer.  As Ethereal progresses, expect more and more proto-
       col fields to be allowed in display filters.

       Packet capturing is performed with the pcap library.  The capture fil-
       ter syntax follows the rules of the pcap library.  This syntax is dif-
       ferent from the display filter syntax.

       Compressed file support uses (and therefore requires) the zlib library.
       If the zlib library is not present, Ethereal will compile, but will be
       unable to read compressed files.

       The pathname of a capture file to be read can be specified with the -r
       option or can be specified as a command-line argument.


OPTIONS

           Most users will want to start Ethereal without options and config-
           ure it from the menus instead. Those users may just skip this sec-
           tion.

       -a  Specify a criterion that specifies when Ethereal is to stop writing
           to a capture file.  The criterion is of the form test:value, where
           test is one of:

           duration
               Stop writing to a capture file after value seconds have
               elapsed.

           filesize
               Stop writing to a capture file after it reaches a size of value
               kilobytes (where a kilobyte is 1000 bytes, not 1024 bytes). If
               this option is used together with the -b option, Ethereal will
               stop writing to the current capture file and switch to the next
               one if filesize is reached.

           files
               Stop writing to capture files after value number of files were
               written.

       -b  If a maximum capture file size was specified, cause Ethereal to run
           in "ring buffer" mode, with the specified number of files.  In
           "ring buffer" mode, Ethereal will write to several capture files.
           Their name is based on the number of the file and on the creation
           date and time.

           When the first capture file fills up, Ethereal will switch to writ-
           ing to the next file, until it fills up the last file, at which
           point it’ll discard the data in the first file (unless 0 is speci-
           fied, in which case, the number of files is unlimited) and start
           writing to that file and so on.

           If the optional duration is specified, Ethereal will switch also to
           the next file when the specified number of seconds has elapsed even
           if the current file is not completely fills up.
           packet capture.

           Network interface names should match one of the names listed in
           "tethereal -D".  If you’re using Unix, "netstat -i" or "ifconfig
           -a" might also work to list interface names, although not all ver-
           sions of Unix support the -a flag to ifconfig.

           Pipe names should be either the name of a FIFO (named pipe) or
           ‘‘-’’ to read data from the standard input.  Data read from pipes
           must be in standard libpcap format.

       -k  Start the capture session immediately.  If the -i flag was speci-
           fied, the capture uses the specified interface.  Otherwise, Ethe-
           real searches the list of interfaces, choosing the first non-loop-
           back interface if there are any non-loopback interfaces, and choos-
           ing the first loopback interface if there are no non-loopback
           interfaces; if there are no interfaces, Ethereal reports an error
           and doesn’t start the capture.

       -l  Turn on automatic scrolling if the packet display is being updated
           automatically as packets arrive during a capture (as specified by
           the -S flag).

       -L  List the data link types supported by the interface and exit.

       -m  Set the name of the font used by Ethereal for most text.  Ethereal
           will construct the name of the bold font used for the data in the
           byte view pane that corresponds to the field selected in the packet
           details pane from the name of the main text font.

       -n  Disable network object name resolution (such as hostname, TCP and
           UDP port names).

       -N  Turn on name resolving for particular types of addresses and port
           numbers, with name resolving for other types of addresses and port
           numbers turned off; the argument is a string that may contain the
           letters m to enable MAC address resolution, n to enable network
           address resolution, and t to enable transport-layer port number
           resolution.  This overrides -n if both -N and -n are present.  The
           letter C enables concurrent (asynchronous) DNS lookups.

       -o  Set a preference value, overriding the default value and any value
           read from a preference file.  The argument to the flag is a string
           of the form prefname:value, where prefname is the name of the pref-
           erence (which is the same name that would appear in the preference
           file), and value is the value to which it should be set.

       -p  Don’t put the interface into promiscuous mode.  Note that the
           interface might be in promiscuous mode for some other reason;
           hence, -p cannot be used to ensure that the only traffic that is
           captured is traffic sent to or from the machine on which Ethereal
           is running, broadcast traffic, and multicast traffic to addresses
           received by that machine.

       -P  Set the initial height of the packet list (top) pane.

           carded.

       -S  Perform the live packet capture in a separate process, and automat-
           ically update the packet display as packets are seen.

       -s  Set the default snapshot length to use when capturing live data.
           No more than snaplen bytes of each network packet will be read into
           memory, or saved to disk.

       -T  Set the initial height of the packet details (middle) pane.

       -t  Set the format of the packet timestamp displayed in the packet list
           window.  The format can be one of ’r’ (relative), ’a’ (absolute),
           ’ad’ (absolute with date), or ’d’ (delta).  The relative time is
           the time elapsed between the first packet and the current packet.
           The absolute time is the actual time the packet was captured, with
           no date displayed; the absolute date and time is the actual time
           and date the packet was captured.  The delta time is the time since
           the previous packet was captured.  The default is relative.

       -v  Print the version and exit.

       -w  Set the default capture file name.

       -y  If a capture is started from the command line with -k, set the data
           link type to use while capturing packets.  The values reported by
           -L are the values that can be used.

       -z  Get Ethereal to collect various types of statistics and display the
           result in a window that updates in semi-real time.  Currently
           implemented statistics are:

           -z dcerpc,srt,uuid,major.minor[,filter]

           Collect call/reply SRT (Service Response Time) data for DCERPC
           interface uuid, version major.minor.  Data collected is number of
           calls for each procedure, MinSRT, MaxSRT and AvgSRT.  Example: use
           -z dcerpc,srt,12345778-1234-abcd-ef00-0123456789ac,1.0 to collect
           data for CIFS SAMR Interface.  This option can be used multiple
           times on the command line.

           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           dcerpc,srt,12345778-1234-abcd-ef00-0123456789ac,1.0,ip.addr==1.2.3.4
           to collect SAMR SRT statistics for a specific host.

           -z io,stat

           Collect packet/bytes statistics for the capture in intervals of 1
           seconds.  This option will open a window with up to 5 color-coded
           graphs where number-of-packets-per-second or number-of-bytes-per-
           second statistics can be calculated and displayed.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           This graph window can also be opened from the Analyze:Statis-
           If the optional filter string is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           rpc,srt,100003,3,nfs.fh.hash==0x12345678 to collect NFS v3 SRT
           statistics for a specific file.

           -z rpc,programs

           Collect call/reply RTT data for all known ONC-RPC programs/ver-
           sions.  Data collected is number of calls for each protocol/ver-
           sion, MinRTT, MaxRTT and AvgRTT.

           -z smb,srt[,filter]

           Collect call/reply SRT (Service Response Time) data for SMB.  Data
           collected is number of calls for each SMB command, MinSRT, MaxSRT
           and AvgSRT.  Example: use -z smb,srt.

           The data will be presented as separate tables for all normal SMB
           commands, all Transaction2 commands and all NT Transaction com-
           mands.  Only those commands that are seen in the capture will have
           its stats displayed.  Only the first command in a xAndX command
           chain will be used in the calculation.  So for common SessionSetu-
           pAndX + TreeConnectAndX chains, only the SessionSetupAndX call will
           be used in the statistics.  This is a flaw that might be fixed in
           the future.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "smb,srt,ip.addr==1.2.3.4" to only collect stats for SMB packets
           echanged by the host at IP address 1.2.3.4 .

           -z fc,srt[,filter]

           Collect call/reply SRT (Service Response Time) data for FC.  Data
           collected is number of calls for each Fibre Channel command, Min-
           SRT, MaxSRT and AvgSRT.  Example: use -z fc,srt.  The Service
           Response Time is calculated as the time delta between the First
           packet of the exchange and the Last packet of the exchange.

           The data will be presented as separate tables for all normal FC
           commands, Only those commands that are seen in the capture will
           have its stats displayed.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "fc,srt,fc.id==01.02.03" to only collect stats for FC packets
           echanged by the host at FC address 01.02.03 .

           -z ldap,srt[,filter]

           Collect call/reply SRT (Service Response Time) data for LDAP.  Data
           collected is number of calls for each implemented LDAP command,
           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "ldap,srt,ip.addr==10.1.1.1" to only collect stats for LDAP packets
           echanged by the host at IP address 10.1.1.1 .

           The only LDAP command that are currently implemented and the stats
           will be available for are: BIND SEARCH MODIFY ADD DELETE MODRDN
           COMPARE EXTENDED

           -z mgcp,srt[,filter]

           Collect requests/response SRT (Service Response Time) data for
           MGCP.  This is similar to -z smb,srt). Data collected is number of
           calls for each known MGCP Type, Minimum SRT, Maximum SRT and Aver-
           age SRT.  Example: use -z mgcp,srt.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "mgcp,srt,ip.addr==1.2.3.4" to only collect stats for MGCP packets
           exchanged by the host at IP address 1.2.3.4 .

           -z conv,type[,filter]

           Create a table that lists all conversations that could be seen in
           the capture.  type specifies for which type of conversation we want
           to generate the statistics; currently the supported ones are

             "eth"   Ethernet
             "fc"    Fibre Channel addresses
             "fddi"  FDDI addresses
             "ip"    IP addresses
             "ipx"   IPX addresses
             "tcp"   TCP/IP socket pairs   Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported
             "tr"    TokenRing
             "udp"   UDP/IP socket pairs   Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported

           If the optional filter string is specified, only those packets that
           match the filter will be used in the calculations.

           The table is presented with one line for each conversation and dis-
           plays number of packets/bytes in each direction as well as total
           number of packets/bytes.  By default, the table is sorted according
           to total number of packets.

           These tables can also be generated at runtime by selecting the
           appropriate conversation type from the menu "Tools/Statistics/Con-
           versation List/".

           -z h225,counter[,filter]

           Count ITU-T H.225 messages and their reasons. In the first column
           you get a list of H.225 messages and H.225 message reasons, which
           occur in the current capture file. The number of occurences of each
           message or reason is displayed in the second column.
           -z h225,srt[,filter]

           Collect requests/response SRT (Service Response Time) data for ITU-
           T H.225 RAS.  Data collected is number of calls of each ITU-T H.225
           RAS Message Type, Minimum SRT, Maximum SRT, Average SRT, Minimum in
           Packet, and Maximum in Packet.  You will also get the number of
           Open Requests (Unresponded Requests), Discarded Responses
           (Responses without matching request) and Duplicate Messages.  Exam-
           ple: use -z h225,srt.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "h225,srt,ip.addr==1.2.3.4" to only collect stats for ITU-T H.225
           RAS packets exchanged by the host at IP address 1.2.3.4 .

           -z sip,stat[,filter]

           This option will activate a counter for SIP messages. You will get
           the number of occurences of each SIP Method and of each SIP Sta-
           tus-Code. Additionally you also get the number of resent SIP Mes-
           sages (only for SIP over UDP).

           Example: use -z sip,stat.

           This option can be used multiple times on the command line.

           If the optional filter string is provided, the stats will only be
           calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z
           "sip,stat,ip.addr==1.2.3.4" to only collect stats for SIP packets
           exchanged by the host at IP address 1.2.3.4 .


INTERFACE

       MENU ITEMS

       File:Open
       File:Open Recent
       File:Close
           Open or close a capture file.  The File:Open dialog box allows a
           filter to be specified; when the capture file is read, the filter
           is applied to all packets read from the file, and packets not
           matching the filter are discarded. The File:Open Recent is a sub-
           menu and will show a list of previously opened files.

       File:Save
       File:Save As
           Save the current capture, or the packets currently displayed from
           that capture, to a file.  Check boxes let you select whether to
           save all packets, or just those that have passed the current dis-
           play filter and/or those that are currently marked, and an option
           menu lets you select (from a list of file formats in which at par-
           ticular capture, or the packets currently displayed from that cap-
           ture, can be saved), a file format in which to save it.

           line, the packet details view, and/or the hex dump of the packet
           can be printed.

           Printing options can be set with the Edit:Preferences menu item, or
           in the dialog box popped up by this menu item.

       File:Quit
           Exit the application.

       Edit:Find Packet
           Search forward or backward, starting with the currently selected
           packet (or the most recently selected packet, if no packet is
           selected).  Search criteria can be a display filter expression, a
           string of hexadecimal digits, or a text string.

           When searching for a text string, you can search the packet data,
           or you can search the text in the Info column in the packet list
           pane or in the packet details pane.

           Hexadecimal digits can be separated by colons, periods, or dashes.
           Text string searches can be ASCII or Unicode (or both), and may be
           case insensitive.

       Edit:Find Next
       Edit:Find Previous
           Search forward / backward for a packet matching the filter from the
           previous search, starting with the currently selected packet (or
           the most recently selected packet, if no packet is selected).

       Edit:Time Reference:Set Time Reference
           Set (or unset if currently set) the selected packet as a Time Ref-
           erence packet.  When a packet is set as a Time Reference packet,
           the timestamps in the packet list pane will be replaced with the
           string "*REF*".  The relative time timestamp in later packets will
           then be calculated relative to the timestamp of this Time Reference
           packet and not the first packet in the capture.

           Packets that have been selected as Time Reference packets will
           always be displayed in the packet list pane.  Display filters will
           not affect or hide these packets.

           If there is a column displayed for "Culmulative Bytes" this counter
           will be reset at every Time Reference packet.

       Edit:Time Reference:Find Next
       Edit:Time Reference:Find Previous

       Edit:Mark Packet
           Mark (or unmark if currently marked) the selected packet.  The
           field "frame.marked" is set for packets that are marked, so that,
           for example, a display filters can be used to display only marked
           packets, and so that the Edit:Find Packet dialog can be used to
           find the next or previous marked packet.

       View:Coloring Rules
           Change the foreground and background colors of the packet informa-
           tion in the list of packets, based upon display filters.  The list
           of display filters is applied to each packet sequentially.  After
           the first display filter matches a packet, any additional display
           filters in the list are ignored.  Therefore, if you are filtering
           on the existence of protocols, you should list the higher-level
           protocols first, and the lower-level protocols last.

           How Colorization Works
               Packets are colored according to a list of color filters. Each
               filter consists of a name, a filter expression and a col-
               oration. A packet is colored according to the first filter that
               it matches, Color filter expressions use exactly the same syn-
               tax as display filter expressions.

               When Ethereal starts, the color filters are loaded from:

                   1. The user’s personal color filters file or, if that does
                   not exist,

                   2. The global color filters file.

           Reload a capture file.  Same as File:Close and File:Open the same
           file again.

       Go:Go To Packet
           Go to a particular numbered packet.

       Go:Go To Corresponding Packet
           If a field in the packet details pane containing a packet number is
           selected, go to the packet number specified by that field.  (This
           works only if the dissector that put that entry into the packet
           details put it into the details as a filterable field rather than
           just as text.) This can be used, for example, to go to the packet
           for the request corresponding to a reply, or the reply correspond-
           ing to a request, if that packet number has been put into the
           packet details.

       Go:First Packet
       Go:Last Packet
           Go to the first / last packet in the capture.

       Capture:Start
           Initiate a live packet capture (see Capture Options dialog below).
           A temporary file will be created to hold the capture.  The location
           of the file can be chosen by setting your TMPDIR environment vari-
           able before starting Ethereal.  Otherwise, the default TMPDIR loca-
           tion is system-dependent, but is likely either /var/tmp or /tmp.

       Capture:Stop
           In a capture that updates the packet display as packets arrive (so
           that Ethereal responds to user input other than pressing the "Stop"
           button in the capture packet statistics dialog box), stop the cap-
           ture.

       Capture:Capture Filters
           Edit the saved list of capture filters, allowing filters to be
           added, changed, or deleted.

       Analyze:Display Filters
           Edit the saved list of display filters, allowing filters to be
           added, changed, or deleted.

       Analyze:Apply as Filter
           Create a display filter, or add to the display filter strip at the
           bottom, a display filter based on the data currently highlighted in
           the packe details, and apply the filter.

           If that data is a field that can be tested in a display filter
           expression, the display filter will test that field; otherwise, the
           display filter will be based on absolute offset within the packet,
           and so could be unreliable if the packet contains protocols with
           variable-length headers, such as a source-routed token-ring packet.

           The Selected option creates a display filter that tests for a match
           of the data; the Not Selected option creates a display filter that
           tests for a non-match of the data.  The And Selected, Or Selected,
           And Not Selected, and Or Not Selected options add to the end of the
           protocol.  Individual protocols can be enabled or disabled by
           clicking on them in the list or by highlighting them and pressing
           the space bar.  The entire list can be enabled, disabled, or
           inverted using the buttons below the list.

           When a protocol is disabled, dissection in a particular packet
           stops when that protocol is reached, and Ethereal moves on to the
           next packet.  Any higher-layer protocols that would otherwise have
           been processed will not be displayed.  For example, disabling TCP
           will prevent the dissection and display of TCP, HTTP, SMTP, Telnet,
           and any other protocol exclusively dependent on TCP.

           The list of protocols can be saved, so that Ethereal will start up
           with the protocols in that list disabled.

       Analyze:Decode As
           If you have a packet selected, present a dialog allowing you to
           change which dissectors are used to decode this packet.  The dialog
           has one panel each for the link layer, network layer and transport
           layer protocol/port numbers, and will allow each of these to be
           changed independently.  For example, if the selected packet is a
           TCP packet to port 12345, using this dialog you can instruct Ethe-
           real to decode all packets to or from that TCP port as HTTP pack-
           ets.

       Analyze:User Specified Decodes
           Create a new window showing whether any protocol ID to dissector
           mappings have been changed by the user.  This window also allows
           the user to reset all decodes to their default values.

       Analyze:Follow TCP Stream
           If you have a TCP packet selected, display the contents of the data
           stream for the TCP connection to which that packet belongs, as
           text, in a separate window, and leave the list of packets in a fil-
           tered state, with only those packets that are part of that TCP con-
           nection being displayed.  You can revert to your old view by press-
           ing ENTER in the display filter text box, thereby invoking your old
           display filter (or resetting it back to no display filter).

           The window in which the data stream is displayed lets you select:

           ·       whether to display the entire conversation, or one or the
                   other side of it;

           ·       whether the data being displayed is to be treated as ASCII
                   or EBCDIC text or as raw hex data;

           and lets you print what’s currently being displayed, using the same
           print options that are used for the File:Print Packet menu item, or
           save it as text to a file.

       Statistics:Summary
           Show summary information about the capture, including elapsed time,
           packet counts, byte counts, and the like.  If a display filter is
           in effect, summary information will be shown about the capture and
           about the packets currently being displayed.
           "End Bytes".

       Statistics:IO Graphs
           Open a window where up to 5 graphs in different colors can be dis-
           played to indicate number of packets or number of bytes per second
           for all packets matching the specified filter.  By default only one
           graph will be displayed showing number of packets per second.

           The top part of the window contains the graphs and scales for the X
           and Y axis.  If the graph is too long to fit inside the window
           there is a horizontal scrollbar below the drawing area that can
           scroll the graphs to the left or the right.  The horizontal axis
           displays the time into the capture and the vertical axis will dis-
           play the measured quantity at that time.

           Below the drawing area and the scrollbar are the controls.  On the
           bottom left there will be five similar sets of controls to control
           each induvidual graph such as "Display:<button>" which button will
           toggle that individual graph on/off.  If <button> is ticked, the
           graph will be displayed.  "Color:<color>" which is just a button to
           show which color will be used to draw that graph (color is only
           available in Gtk2 version) and finally "Filter:<filter-text>" which
           can be used to specify a display filter for that particular graph.

           If filter-text is empty then all packets will be used to calculate
           the quantity for that graph.  If filter-text is specified only
           those packets that match that display filter will be considered in
           the calculation of quantity.

           To the right of the 5 graph controls there are four menus to con-
           trol global aspects of the draw area and graphs.  The "Unit:" menu
           is used to control what to measure; "packets/tick", "bytes/tick" or
           "advanced..."

           packets/tick will measure the number of packets matching the (if
           specified) display filter for the graph in each measurement inter-
           val.

           bytes/tick will measure the total number of bytes in all packets
           matching the (if specified) display filter for the graph in each
           measurement interval.

           advanced... see below

           "Tick interval:" specifies what measurement intervals to use.  The
           default is 1 second and means that the data will be counted over 1
           second intervals.

           "Pixels per tick:" specifies how many pixels wide each measurement
           interval will be in the drawing area.  The default is 5 pixels per
           tick.

           "Y-scale:" controls the max value for the y-axis.  Default value is
           "auto" which means that Ethereal will try to adjust the maxvalue
           automatically.

           that some field can occur multiple times in the same packet and
           then all instances will be summed up.  Example: ’tcp.len’ which
           will count the amount of payload data transferred across TCP in
           each interval.

           COUNT: available for all field types. This will COUNT the number of
           times certain field occurs in each interval. Note that some fields
           may occur multiple times in each packet and if that is the case
           then each instance will be counted independently and COUNT will be
           greater than the number of packets.

           MAX: available for all integer and relative time fields. This will
           calculate the max seen integer/time value seen for the field during
           the interval.  Example: ’smb.time’ which will plot the maximum SMB
           response time.

           MIN: available for all integer and relative time fields. This will
           calculate the min seen integer/time value seen for the field during
           the interval.  Example: ’smb.time’ which will plot the minimum SMB
           response time.

           AVG: available for all integer and relative time fields.This will
           calculate the average seen integer/time value seen for the field
           during the interval.  Example: ’smb.time’ which will plot the aver-
           age SMB response time.

           LOAD: available only for relative time fields (response times).

           Example of advanced: Display how NFS response time MAX/MIN/AVG
           changes over time:

           Set first graph to:

              filter:nfs&&rpc.time
              Calc:MAX rpc.time

           Set second graph to

              filter:nfs&&rpc.time
              Calc:AVG rpc.time

           Set third graph to

              filter:nfs&&rpc.time
              Calc:MIN rpc.time

           Example of advanced: Display how the average packet size from host
           a.b.c.d changes over time.

           Set first graph to

              filter:ip.addr==a.b.c.d&&frame.pkt_len
              Calc:AVG frame.pkt_len

           LOAD: The LOAD io-stat type is very different from anything you
           have ever seen before! While the response times themself as plotted

           Load is measured in concurrency/number of overlapping i/o and the
           value 1000 means there is a constant load of one i/o.

           In each tick interval the amount of overlap is measured.  See the
           graph below containing three commands: Below the graph are the LOAD
           values for each interval that would be calculated.

       Statistics:Conversation List
           This option will open a new window that displays a list of all con-
           versations between two endpoints.  The list has one row for each
           unique conversation and displays total number of packets/bytes seen
           as well as number of packets/bytes in each direction.

           By default the list is sorted according to the number of packets
           but by clicking on the column header; it is possible to re-sort the
           list in ascending or descending order by any column.

           By first selecting a conversation by clicking on it and then using
           the right mouse button (on those platforms that have a right mouse
           button) ethereal will display a popup menu offering several differ-
           ent filter operations to apply to the capture.

           These statistics windows can also be invoked from the Ethereal com-
           mand line using the -z conv argument.

       Statistics:Service Response Time:DCE-RPC
           Open a window to display Service Response Time statistics for an
           arbitrary DCE-RPC program interface and display Procedure, Number
           of Calls, Minimum SRT, Maximum SRT and Average SRT for all proce-
           dures for that program/version.  These windows opened will update
           in semi-real time to reflect changes when doing live captures or
           when reading new capture files into Ethereal.

           This dialog will also allow an optional filter string to be used.
           If an optional filter string is used only such DCE-RPC
           request/response pairs that match that filter will be used to cal-
           culate the statistics. If no filter string is specified all
           request/response pairs will be used.

       Statistics:Service Response Time:Fibre Channel
           Open a window to display Service Response Time statistics for Fibre
           Channel and display FC Type, Number of Calls, Minimum SRT, Maximum
           SRT and Average SRT for all FC types.  These windows opened will
           update in semi-real time to reflect changes when doing live cap-
           tures or when reading new capture files into Ethereal.  The Service
           Response Time is calculated as the time delta between the First
           gram interface and display Procedure, Number of Calls, Minimum SRT,
           Maximum SRT and Average SRT for all procedures for that pro-
           gram/version.  These windows opened will update in semi-real time
           to reflect changes when doing live captures or when reading new
           capture files into Ethereal.

           This dialog will also allow an optional filter string to be used.
           If an optional filter string is used only such ONC-RPC
           request/response pairs that match that filter will be used to cal-
           culate the statistics. If no filter string is specified all
           request/response pairs will be used.

           By first selecting a conversation by clicking on it and then using
           the right mouse button (on those platforms that have a right mouse
           button) ethereal will display a popup menu offering several differ-
           ent filter operations to apply to the capture.

       Statistics:Service Response Time:SMB
           Collect call/reply SRT (Service Response Time) data for SMB.  Data
           collected is number of calls for each SMB command, MinSRT, MaxSRT
           and AvgSRT.

           The data will be presented as separate tables for all normal SMB
           commands, all Transaction2 commands and all NT Transaction com-
           mands.  Only those commands that are seen in the capture will have
           its stats displayed.  Only the first command in a xAndX command
           chain will be used in the calculation.  So for common SessionSetu-
           pAndX + TreeConnectAndX chains, only the SessionSetupAndX call will
           be used in the statistics.  This is a flaw that might be fixed in
           the future.

           You can apply an optional filter string in a dialog box, before
           starting the calculation. The stats will only be calculated on
           those calls matching that filter.

           By first selecting a conversation by clicking on it and then using
           the right mouse button (on those platforms that have a right mouse
           button) ethereal will display a popup menu offering several differ-
           ent filter operations to apply to the capture.

       Statistics:Service Response Time:MGCP
           Collect requests/response SRT (Service Response Time) data for
           MGCP.  Data collected is number of calls for each known MGCP Type,
           Minimum SRT, Maximum SRT, Average SRT, Minimum in Packet, and Maxi-
           mum in Packet.  These windows opened will update in semi-real time
           to reflect changes when doing live captures or when reading new
           capture files into Ethereal.

           You can apply an optional filter string in a dialog box, before
           starting the calculation. The statistics will only be calculated on
           those calls matching that filter.

       Statistics:Service Response Time:ITU-T H.225 RAS
           Collect requests/response SRT (Service Response Time) data for ITU-
           T H.225 RAS.  Data collected is number of calls for each known ITU-
           T H.225 RAS Message Type, Minimum SRT, Maximum SRT, Average SRT,

       Statistics:ITU-T H.225
           Count ITU-T H.225 messages and their reasons. In the first column
           you get a list of H.225 messages and H.225 message reasons, which
           occur in the current capture file. The number of occurences of each
           message or reason will be displayed in the second column.  This
           window opened will update in semi-real time to reflect changes when
           doing live captures or when reading new capture files into Ethe-
           real.

           You can apply an optional filter string in a dialog box, before
           starting the counter. The statistics will only be calculated on
           those calls matching that filter.

       Statistics:SIP
           Activate a counter for SIP messages. You will get the number of
           occurences of each SIP Method and of each SIP Status-Code. Addi-
           tionally you also get the number of resent SIP Messages (only for
           SIP over UDP).

           This window opened will update in semi-real time to reflect changes
           when doing live captures or when reading new capture files into
           Ethereal.

           You can apply an optional filter string in a dialog box, before
           starting the counter. The statistics will only be calculated on

       Statistics:ONC-RPC Programs
           This dialog will open a window showing aggregated RTT statistics
           for all ONC-RPC Programs/versions that exist in the capture file.

       WINDOWS

       Main Window
           The main window contains the usual things like the menu, some tool-
           bars, the main area and a statusbar. The main area is split into
           three panes, you can resize each pane using a "thumb" at the right
           end of each divider line.

           The main window is much more flexible than before. The layout of
           the main window can be customized by the Layout page in the dialog
           box popped up by Edit:Preferences, the following will describe the
           layout with the default settings.


                 Selecting the Filter: button lets you choose from a list of
                 named filters that you can optionally save.  Pressing the
                 Return or Enter keys, or selecting the Apply button, will
                 cause the filter to be applied to the current list of pack-
                 ets.  Selecting the Reset button clears the display filter so
                 that all packets are displayed (again).

                 There is no way to customize the items in the toolbar, how-
                 ever the toolbar can be hidden by View:Filter Toolbar.

           Packet List Pane
                 The top pane contains the list of network packets that you
                 can scroll through and select.  By default, the packet num-
                 ber, packet timestamp, source and destination addresses, pro-
                 tocol, and description are displayed for each packet; the
                 Columns page in the dialog box popped up by Edit:Preferences
                 lets you change this (although, unfortunately, you currently
                 have to save the preferences, and exit and restart Ethereal,
                 for those changes to take effect).

                 If you click on the heading for a column, the display will be
                 sorted by that column; clicking on the heading again will
                 reverse the sort order for that column.

                 An effort is made to display information as high up the pro-
                 tocol stack as possible, e.g. IP addresses are displayed for
                 IP packets, but the MAC layer address is displayed for
                 unknown packet types.

                 The right mouse button can be used to pop up a menu of opera-
                 tions.

                 The middle mouse button can be used to mark a packet.

           Packet Details Pane
                 The middle pane contains a display of the details of the cur-
                 rently-selected packet.  The display shows each field and its
                 value in each protocol header in the stack.  The right mouse
                 button can be used to pop up a menu of operations.

           Packet Bytes Pane
                 The lowest pane contains a hex and ASCII dump of the actual
                 packet data.  Selecting a field in the packet details high-
                 lights the corresponding bytes in this section.

                 The right mouse button can be used to pop up a menu of opera-
                 tions.

           Statusbar
                 The statusbar is divided into two parts, on the left some
                 context dependant things are shown, like information about
                 the loaded file, on the right the number of packets are dis-
                 played: P = Packets captured/loaded, D = Displayed in packet
                 list (after filtering), M = Marked by user.

                 Scrollbars
                       The vertical scrollbars in the three panes can be set
                       to be either on the left or the right.

                 Selection Bars
                       The selection bar in the packet list and packet details
                       can have either a "browse" or "select" behavior.  If
                       the selection bar has a "browse" behavior, the arrow
                       keys will move an outline of the selection bar, allow-
                       ing you to browse the rest of the list or details with-
                       out changing the selection until you press the space
                       bar.  If the selection bar has a "select" behavior, the
                       arrow keys will move the selection bar and change the
                       selection to the new item in the packet list or packet
                       details.

                 Tree Line Style
                       Trees can be drawn with no lines, solid lines, or dot-
                       ted lines between items, or can be drawn with "tab"
                       headings.

                 Tree Expander Style
                       The expander item that can be clicked to show or hide
                       items under a tree item can be omitted (note that this
                       will prevent you from changing whether those items are
                       shown or hidden!), or can be drawn as squares, trian-
                       gles, or circles.

                 Hex Display
                       The highlight method in the hex dump display for the
                       selected protocol item can be set to use either inverse
                       video, or bold characters.

                 Save Window Position
                       If this item is selected, the position of the main
                       Ethereal window will be saved when Ethereal exits, and
                       used when Ethereal is started again.

                 Save Window Size
                       If this item is selected, the size of the main Ethereal
                       window will be saved when Ethereal exits, and used when
                       Ethereal is started again.

                 File Open Dialog Behavior
                       This item allows the user to select how Ethereal han-
                       dles the listing of the "File Open" Dialog when opening
                       trace files.  "Remember Last Directory" causes Ethereal
                       to automatically position the dialog in the directory
                       of the most recently opened file, even between launches
                       of Ethereal.  "Always Open in Directory" allows the
                       user to define a persistent directory that the dialog
                       will always default to.

                 Directory
                       Allows the user to specify a persistent File Open
                       directory.  Trailing slashes or backslashes will auto-

                 The Column title entry is used to specify the title of the
                 column displayed at the top of the packet list.  The type of
                 data that the column displays can be specified using the Col-
                 umn format option menu.  The row of buttons on the left per-
                 form the following actions:

                 New   Adds a new column to the list.

                 Delete
                       Deletes the currently selected list item.

                 Up / Down
                       Moves the selected list item up or down one position.

           Font Preferences
                 The Font page lets you select the font to be used for most
                 text.

           Color Preferences
                 The Colors page can be used to change the color of the text
                 displayed in the TCP stream window and for marked packets. To
                 change a color, simply select an attribute from the "Set:"
                 menu and use the color selector to get the desired color.
                 The new text colors are displayed as a sample text.

           Capture Preferences
                 The Capture page lets you specify various parameters for cap-
                 turing live packet data; these are used the first time a cap-
                 ture is started.

                 The Interface: combo box lets you specify the interface from
                 which to capture packet data, or the name of a FIFO from
                 which to get the packet data.

                 The Data link type: option menu lets you, for some inter-
                 faces, select the data link header you want to see on the
                 packets you capture.  For example, in some OSes and with some
                 versions of libpcap, you can choose, on an 802.11 interface,
                 whether the packets should appear as Ethernet packets (with a
                 fake Ethernet header) or as 802.11 packets.

                 The Limit each packet to ... bytes check box lets you set the
                 snapshot length to use when capturing live data; turn on the
                 check box, and then set the number of bytes to use as the
                 snapshot length.

                 The Filter: text entry lets you set a capture filter expres-
                 sion to be used when capturing.

                 If any of the environment variables SSH_CONNECTION,
                 SSH_CLIENT, REMOTEHOST, DISPLAY, or CLIENTNAME are set, Ethe-
                 real will create a default capture filter that excludes traf-
                 fic from the hosts and ports defined in those variables.

                 The Capture packets in promiscuous mode check box lets you
                 show the most recently captured packets.

           Printing Preferences
                 The radio buttons at the top of the Printing page allow you
                 choose between printing packets with the File:Print Packet
                 menu item as text or PostScript, and sending the output
                 directly to a command or saving it to a file.  The Command:
                 text entry box, on UNIX-compatible systems, is the command to
                 send files to (usually lpr), and the File: entry box lets you
                 enter the name of the file you wish to save to.  Addition-
                 ally, you can select the File: button to browse the file sys-
                 tem for a particular save file.

           Protocol Preferences
                 There are also pages for various protocols that Ethereal dis-
                 sects, controlling the way Ethereal handles those protocols.

       Edit Capture Filter List
       Edit Display Filter List
       Capture Filter
       Display Filter
       Read Filter
       Search Filter
           The Edit Capture Filter List dialog lets you create, modify, and
           delete capture filters, and the Edit Display Filter List dialog
           lets you create, modify, and delete display filters.

           The Capture Filter dialog lets you do all of the editing operations
           listed, and also lets you choose or construct a filter to be used
           when capturing packets.

           The Display Filter dialog lets you do all of the editing operations
           listed, and also lets you choose or construct a filter to be used
           to filter the current capture being viewed.

           The Read Filter dialog lets you do all of the editing operations
           listed, and also lets you choose or construct a filter to be used
           to as a read filter for a capture file you open.

           The Search Filter dialog lets you do all of the editing operations
           listed, and also lets you choose or construct a filter expression
           to be used in a find operation.

           In all of those dialogs, the Filter name entry specifies a descrip-
           tive name for a filter, e.g.  Web and DNS traffic.  The Filter
           string entry is the text that actually describes the filtering
           action to take, as described above.The dialog buttons perform the
           following actions:

           New   If there is text in the two entry boxes, creates a new asso-
                 ciated list item.

                 the entry boxes.

           Delete
                 position.

           OK    In the Capture Filter dialog, closes the dialog box and makes
                 the filter in the Filter string entry the filter in the
                 Capture Preferences dialog.  In the Display Filter dialog,
                 closes the dialog box and makes the filter in the Filter
                 string entry the current display filter, and applies it to
                 the current capture.  In the Read Filter dialog, closes the
                 dialog box and makes the filter in the Filter string entry
                 the filter in the Open Capture File dialog.  In the Search
                 Filter dialog, closes the dialog box and makes the filter in
                 the Filter string entry the filter in the Find Packet dialog.

           Apply Makes the filter in the Filter string entry the current dis-
                 play filter, and applies it to the current capture.

           Save  If the list of filters being edited is the list of capture
                 filters, saves the current filter list to the personal cap-
                 ture filters file, and if the list of filters being edited is
                 the list of display filters, saves the current filter list to
                 the personal display filters file.

           Close Closes the dialog without doing anything with the filter in
                 the Filter string entry.

       The Color Filters Dialog
           This dialog displays a list of color filters and allows it to be
           modified.

           THE FILTER LIST
               Single rows may be selected by clicking. Multiple rows may be
               selected by using the ctrl and shift keys in combination with
               the mouse button.

           NEW Adds a new filter at the bottom of the list and opens the Edit
               Color Filter dialog box. You will have to alter the filter
               expression at least before the filter will be accepted. The
               format of color filter expressions is identical to that of dis-
               play filters. The new filter is selected, so it may immediately
               be moved up and down, deleted or edited.  To avoid confusion
               all filters are unselected before the new filter is created.

           EDIT
               Opens the Edit Color Filter dialog box for the selected filter.
               (If this button is disabled you may have more than one filter
               selected, making it ambiguous which is to be edited.)

           DELETE
               Deletes the selected color filter(s).

           EXPORT
               Allows you to choose a file in which to save the current list
               of color filters. You may also choose to save only the selected
               filters. A button is provided to save the filters in the global
               color filters file (you must have sufficient permissions to
               write this file, of course).

           CLEAR
               Deletes your personal color filters file, reloads the global
               color filters file, if any, and closes the dialog.

           UP  Moves the selected filter(s) up the list, making it more likely
               that they will be used to color packets.

           DOWN
               Moves the selected filter(s) down the list, making it less
               likely that they will be used to color packets.

           OK  Closes the dialog and uses the color filters as they stand.

           APPLY
               Colors the packets according to the current list of color fil-
               ters, but does not close the dialog.

           SAVE
               Saves the current list of color filters in your personal color
               filters file. Unless you do this they will not be used the next
               time you start Ethereal.

           CLOSE
               Closes the dialog without changing the coloration of the pack-
               ets. Note that changes you have made to the current list of
               color filters are not undone.

       Capture Options
           The Capture Options dialog lets you specify various parameters for
           capturing live packet data.

           The Interface: field lets you specify the interface from which to
           capture packet data or a command from which to get the packet data
           via a pipe.

           The Link layer header type: field lets you specify the interfaces
           link layer header type. This field is usually disabled, as most
           interface have only one header type.

           The Capture packets in promiscuous mode check box lets you specify
           whether the interface should be put into promiscuous mode when cap-
           turing.

           The Limit each packet to ... bytes check box and field lets you
           specify a maximum number of bytes per packet to capture and save;
           if the check box is not checked, the limit will be 65535 bytes.

           The Capture Filter: entry lets you specify the capture filter using
           a tcpdump-style filter string as described above.

           The File: entry lets you specify the file into which captured pack-
           ets should be saved, as in the Printer Options dialog above.  If
           not specified, the captured packets will be saved in a temporary
           file; you can save those packets to a file with the File:Save As
           menu item.


           The Next file every ... minute(s) check box and fields lets you
           specify that the switch to a next file should be done after the
           specified time has elapsed, even if the specified capture size is
           not reached.

           The Ring buffer with ... files field lets you specify the number of
           files of a ring buffer. This feature will capture into to the first
           file again, after the specified amount of files were used.

           The Stop capture after ... files field lets you specify the number
           of capture files used, until the capture is stopped.

           The Stop capture after ... packet(s) check box and field let you
           specify that Ethereal should stop capturing after having captured
           some number of packets; if the check box is not checked, Ethereal
           will not stop capturing at some fixed number of captured packets.

           The Stop capture after ... megabyte(s) check box and field lets you
           specify that Ethereal should stop capturing after the file to which
           captured packets are being saved grows as large as or larger than
           some specified number of megabytes. If the check box is not
           checked, Ethereal will not stop capturing at some capture file size
           (although the operating system on which Ethereal is running, or the
           available disk space, may still limit the maximum size of a capture
           file). This option is disabled, if "multiple files" mode is used,

           The Stop capture after ...  second(s) check box and field let you
           specify that Ethereal should stop capturing after it has been cap-
           turing for some number of seconds; if the check box is not checked,
           Ethereal will not stop capturing after some fixed time has elapsed.

           The Update list of packets in real time check box lets you specify
           whether the display should be updated as packets are captured and,
           if you specify that, the Automatic scrolling in live capture check
           box lets you specify the packet list pane should automatically
           scroll to show the most recently captured packets as new packets
           arrive.

           The Enable MAC name resolution, Enable network name resolution and
           Enable transport name resolution check boxes let you specify
           whether MAC addresses, network addresses, and transport-layer port
           numbers should be translated to names.

       About
           The About dialog lets you view various information about Ethereal.

       About:Ethereal
           The Ethereal page lets you view general information about Ethereal,
           like the installed version, licensing information and such.

       About:Authors
           The Authors page shows the author and all contributors.

       About:Folders
           The Folders page lets you view the directory names where Ethereal
           /usr/local/lib/ethereal/plugins/$VERSION), /usr/lib/ethereal/plug-
           ins/$VERSION, /usr/local/lib/ethereal/plugins/$VERSION, and
           $HOME/.ethereal/plugins on UNIX-compatible systems, and in the plu-
           gins\$VERSION directory under the main installation directory (for
           example, C:\Program Files\Ethereal\plugins\$VERSION) and %APP-
           DATA%\Ethereal\plugins\$VERSION (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t defined,
           %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\plugins\$VERSION) on Win-
           dows systems; $VERSION is the version number of the plugin inter-
           face, which is typically the version number of Ethereal.  Note that
           a dissector plugin module may support more than one protocol; there
           is not necessarily a one-to-one correspondence between dissector
           plugin modules and protocols.  Protocols supported by a dissector
           plugin module are enabled and disabled using the Edit:Protocols
           dialog box, just as protocols built into Ethereal are.

FILES

       The global preferences file, preferences, which is installed in the
       ethereal directory under the share subdirectory of the main installa-
       tion directory (for example, /usr/local/share/ethereal) on UNIX-compat-
       ible systems, and in the main installation directory (for example,
       C:\Program Files\Ethereal) on Windows systems, and the personal prefer-
       ences file, which is $HOME/.ethereal/preferences on UNIX-compatible
       systems and %APPDATA%\Ethereal\preferences (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t
       defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\preferences) on Win-
       dows systems, contain system-wide and personal preference settings,
       respectively.  The files contain preference settings of the form pref-
       name:value, one per line, where prefname is the name of the preference
       (which is the same name that would appear in the preference file), and
       value is the value to which it should be set; white space is allowed
       between : and value.  A preference setting can be continued on subse-
       quent lines by indenting the continuation lines with white space.  A #
       character starts a comment that runs to the end of the line.

       The system-wide preference file is read first, if it exists, overriding
       Ethereal’s default values; the personal preferences file is then read,
       if it exists, overriding default values and values read from the sys-
       tem-wide preference file.

       Note that whenever the preferences are saved by using the Save button
       in the Edit:Preferences dialog box, your personal preferences file will
       be overwritten with the new settings, destroying any comments that were
       in the file.

       The disabled protocols file, which is $HOME/.ethereal/disabled_protos
       on UNIX-compatible systems and %APPDATA%\Ethereal\disabled_protos (or,
       if %APPDATA% isn’t defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethe-
       real\disabled_protos) on Windows systems, contain a list of protocols
       that have been disabled, so that their dissectors are never called.
       The file contains protocol names, one per line, where the protocol name
       isn’t defined, the %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\hosts file)
       on Windows systems, exists, the entries in that file are used to
       resolve IPv4 and IPv6 addresses before any other attempts are made to
       resolve them.  That file has the standard hosts file syntax; each line
       contains one IP address and name, separated by whitespace.

       The global ethers file, which is found in the /etc directory on UNIX-
       compatible systems, and in the main installation directory (for exam-
       ple, C:\Program Files\Ethereal) on Windows systems, is consulted to
       correlate 6-byte hardware addresses to names.  If an address is not
       found in the global ethers file, the personal ethers file, in
       $HOME/.ethereal/ethers on UNIX-compatible systems, and in
       %APPDATA%\Ethereal\ethers (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t defined, the %USER-
       PROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\ethers file) on Windows systems is
       consulted next.  Each line contains one hardware address and name, sep-
       arated by whitespace.  The digits of the hardware address are separated
       by either a colon (:), a dash (-), or a period (.).  The following
       three lines are valid lines of an ethers file:

         ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff          Broadcast
         c0-00-ff-ff-ff-ff          TR_broadcast
         00.00.00.00.00.00          Zero_broadcast

       The manuf file, which is installed in the etc directory under the main
       installation directory (for example, /usr/local/etc) on UNIX-compatible
       systems, and in the main installation directory (for example, C:\Pro-
       gram Files\Ethereal) on Windows systems, matches the 3-byte vendor por-
       tion of a 6-byte hardware address with the manufacturer’s name; it can
       also contain well-known MAC addresses and address ranges specified with
       a netmask.  The format of the file is the same as the ethers file,
       except that entries of the form

         00:00:0C      Cisco

       can be provided, with the 3-byte OUI and the name for a vendor, and
       entries of the form

         00-00-0C-07-AC/40     All-HSRP-routers

       can be specified, with a MAC address and a mask indicating how many
       bits of the address must match.  Trailing zero bytes can be omitted
       from address ranges.  That entry, for example, will match addresses
       from 00-00-0C-07-AC-00 through 00-00-0C-07-AC-FF.  The mask need not be
       a multiple of 8.

       The global ipxnets file, which is found in the /etc directory on UNIX-
       compatible systems, and in the main installation directory (for exam-
       ple, C:\Program Files\Ethereal) on Windows systems, correlates 4-byte
       IPX network numbers to names.  If a network number is not found in the
       global ipxnets file, the personal ipxnets file, in $HOME/.ethe-
       real/ipxnets on UNIX-compatible systems, and in %APPDATA%\Ethe-
       real\ipxnets (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t defined, the %USERPROFILE%\Appli-
       cation Data\Ethereal\ipxnets file) on Windows systems, is consulted
       next.  The format is the same as the ethers file, except that each
       address if four bytes instead of six.  Additionally, the address can be
       represented a single hexadecimal number, as is more common in the IPX
       isn’t defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\cfilters) on
       Windows systems, and the personal display filters file, in $HOME/.ethe-
       real/dfilters on UNIX-compatible systems, and %APPDATA%\Ethereal\dfil-
       ters (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application
       Data\Ethereal\dfilters) on Windows systems, contain personal capture
       and display filters, respectively.

       The global color filters file, colorfilters, which is installed in the
       ethereal directory under the share subdirectory of the main installa-
       tion directory (for example, /usr/local/share/ethereal) on UNIX-compat-
       ible systems, and in the main installation directory (for example,
       C:\Program Files\Ethereal) on Windows systems, and the personal color
       filters file, which is $HOME/.ethereal/colorfilters on UNIX-compatible
       systems and %APPDATA%\Ethereal\colorfilters (or, if %APPDATA% isn’t
       defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Ethereal\colorfilters) on Win-
       dows systems, contain system-wide and personal color filters, respec-
       tively.

       Alain Magloire <alainm[AT]rcsm.ece.mcgill.ca> was kind enough to
       give his permission to use his version of snprintf.c.

       Dan Lasley <dlasley[AT]promus.com> gave permission for his
       dumpit() hex-dump routine to be used.

       Mattia Cazzola <mattiac[AT]alinet.it> provided a patch to the
       hex dump display routine.

       We use the exception module from Kazlib, a C library written by
       Kaz Kylheku <kaz[AT]ashi.footprints.net>. Thanks go to him for
       his well-written library. The Kazlib home page can be found at
