The Filter Table

The Filter Table lets you filter packets from any table using many criteria.

• When the filter is enable for a table (or for the global application) every received packet will go through the filter table.
• When a packet goes through the table every filter from the first to the last one will be matched against it.
• If the packet is filtered it will be discarded from the tables (or from the global application) if the filtering is enable for it.
• In the snapshot example every packet but the ICMP packets will be filtered from the Rx Packet Table.

Columns:

• Leave the cursor on any column button to summon a help balloon describing the column and showing keyboard shortcuts.
• Left click on any column button to sort the table using this column.
• Drag the column button edges to resize the column.
• To match a hexadecimal string you can use "{ }", for example to match "Login" you can use { L o g i n } or { 1a 3c 6f 29 }.
