svn path=/trunk/; revision=8576
2003-09-06From Graham Bloice, with changes from me: list the interface index inGuy Harris1-3/+15
"-D" output, and support interface indices as arguments to "-i", tcpdump-style. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8402
2003-09-04Update to the conversations list.Ronnie Sahlberg1-1/+1
Rename it from Endpoint Talkers to : Conversation List Change command line arguments to both tethereal and ethereal to be -z conv,<type> to reflect the new name Conversations This is the last time the tethereal cmd line arg is changed. But now it has a proper intuitive name at least. io,users was weird talkers was too close to names used in other tools svn path=/trunk/; revision=8379
2003-08-29Add endpoint talkers support for FDDI to ethereal and tetherealRonnie Sahlberg1-0/+1
Welcome FDDI into the endpoint talkers family. Nobody gets left behind! svn path=/trunk/; revision=8310
2003-08-27Fix a typo.Guy Harris1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=8284
2003-08-27Add a "contains" operator for byte-strings, strings, and tvbuffs (protocols).Gilbert Ramirez1-1/+6
The search uses a naive approach; more work is required to add a Boyer-Moore Search algorithm. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8280
2003-08-24Update for the tethereal talkers to amke it support IPX.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+1
Useage is -z talkers,ipx[,<filter>] svn path=/trunk/; revision=8242
2003-08-24Add support for Fibre Channel talker statistics for tethereal.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+1
-z talkers,fc[,<filter>] to invoke it. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8237
2003-08-24Update manpage for ethereal.Ronnie Sahlberg1-3/+3
Update the talkers tap for tethereal (iousers) and change the command line to invoke the tethereal version from -z io,users, to -z talkers, to be the same as for ethereal. Sorry if it breaks some scripts but io,users was a very nonintuitive name for this option. talkers is not much better but at least a little bit more descriptive/intuitive. Anyone with a better name for this are welcome to provide a patch. The tethereal version is now agnostic to wether v4 or v6 are transporting UDP/TCP svn path=/trunk/; revision=8236
2003-08-07Document the disabled_protos file and the fact that you can save theGuy Harris1-0/+10
list of disabled protocols. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8145
2003-07-30Fix a typo.Guy Harris1-1/+8
Note that, inside double quotes, you must escape backslashes with backslashes. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8104

agents. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8093
2003-07-25Add to the fundamental types passed between the scanner and the parser.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+17
Besides "STRING", there is now "UNPARSED_STRING", where the distinction is that "STRING" was a double-quoted string and "UNPARSED_STRING" is just a sequence of characters that the scanner didn't know how to scan/parse, so it's up to the Ftype to parse it. This gives us more flexibility and prepares the dfilter parsing engine for the upcoming addition of the "contains" operator. In the process of doing this, I also re-did the double-quoted string support in the scanner, so that instead of the naively-simple support we used to have, double-quoted strings now can have embedded dobule-quotes, embedded octal sequences, and embedded hexadecimal sequences: "\"" embedded double-quote "\110" embedded octal "\x48" embedded hex Enhance the dfilter unit test script to be able to run a single collection of tests instead of having to run all of them all the time. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8083
2003-07-22Add two preferences to control ADNS, one to enable/disable it and one toGerald Combs1-0/+1
set its concurrency level. Fix an ADNS queueing bug. svn path=/trunk/; revision=8063
2003-06-22Ringbuffer rework.Laurent Deniel1-13/+7
Almost completely rewritten in order to: - be able to use a unlimited number of ringbuffer files 0 specified with -b argument or in the GUI, means that the number of file is unlimited. else the maximum number of ring buffer files is arbitrarily set to 1024. - close the current file and open (truncating it) the next file at switch - set the final file name once open (or reopen) - avoid the deletion of files that could not be truncated (can't arise now) and do not erase empty files The idea behind that is to remove the limitation of the maximum # of ringbuffer files being less than the maximum # of open fd per process and to be able to reduce the amount of virtual memory usage (having only one file open at most) or the amount of file system usage (by truncating the files at switch and not the capture stop, and by closing them which makes possible their move or deletion after a switch). svn path=/trunk/; revision=7912
2003-06-13Fix some typoes.Guy Harris1-2/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7872
2003-06-09Use B<> for sample command-line options.Guy Harris1-12/+12
Show the name of the program in boldface and capitalize it. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7818
2003-06-09SID name mappings can now be presented in a table by tetherealRonnie Sahlberg1-0/+14
using the -z smb,sids command argument. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7816
2003-06-05From Lionel Ains: "-d" flag for decode-as support in Tethereal.Guy Harris1-0/+7
Add a new routine to iterate through all dissector tables, calling a routine for each table, to support having the "-d" code list all dissector tables. Get rid of "dissector_handle_get_dissector_name()"; it was put in there for "-d", but turns out not to be necessary for that. Clean up the usage message a bit (using the convention, adhered to by at least some UNIX utilities, of listing all the flags with no arguments in a single lump, and then listing the ones with arguments individually, and also putting "-v" and "-h" in a separate lump, as Ethereal does). svn path=/trunk/; revision=7788
2003-05-20Lump TCPIPtrace and UCX$TRACE together and add TCPtrace to the mix.Guy Harris1-8/+8
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7700
2003-05-19From Martin Warnes: support for VMS UCX$TRACE output in wiretap.Guy Harris1-7/+7
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7692
2003-05-17Note that the output format list is displayed by the "-h" flag.Gerald Combs1-0/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7687
2003-05-17Add the list of output file format specs to Tethereal's man page.Gerald Combs1-6/+31
At some point we should probably add the list automatically, like we do the filter fields. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7686
2003-05-15Implement a ring buffer switch duration:Laurent Deniel1-1/+5
when the new "Rotate capture file every n second(s)" checkbox or the -b <# of file>[:<duration>] argument are used, [t]ethereal will skip to the next ring buffer file if the specified duration has elapsed (even if the specified capture size is not reached). This is useful when you want to have separate capture files per hour or day for instance. I let the autostop filesize parameter mandatory (i.e. the "rotate capture file after n kilobytes") but this could be no longer strictly necessary when that new feature is used ... Another point: it might be interesting to really truncate the file at the switch and not the closure ... According to user comments and my own real case tests, I might plan to enhance this point and others (still ring buffer related) in the future. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7678
2003-04-27From Lars Roland: document the "mgcp,rtd" tap for Ethereal, and improveGuy Harris1-6/+7
the documentation for that tap for Tethereal. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7587
2003-04-26Put the new "-z" examples in boldface. (pod2man warns you about that.)Guy Harris1-18/+27
Wrap some paragraphs to 80 columns. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7569
2003-04-24Update to io-stat for tethereal.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+38
Make it able to calculate COUNT() SUM() MIN() MAX() and AVG() for integers and relative time fields. See tethereal manpage for examples. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7550
2003-04-22Update to the io,stat tethereal tap.Ronnie Sahlberg1-1/+9
Make it possible to use subsecond granularity for the measurement intervals. io,stat is updated to accept the interval to be specified with ms resolution. Example -z io,stat,0.001,smb to generate 1ms statistics for all SMB traffic. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7527
2003-03-08Documentation for the MGCP tap,f rom Lars Roland.Guy Harris1-0/+15
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7317
2003-03-03Added tap functionality to UDPRonnie Sahlberg1-0/+1
Added top talkers calculation for UDP socketpairs try -z io,users,udpip svn path=/trunk/; revision=7266
2003-03-03Update for tethereal -z io,users, top talkers :Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+1
"tcpip" added. -z io,users,tcpip will create a top talkers list of individual tcpip connections svn path=/trunk/; revision=7264
2003-01-22TopTalkers feature for Ethernet/IP/TokenRingRonnie Sahlberg1-0/+18
IO-Users is a feature for tethereal that will print statistics on io usage similar to top talkers in other tools. It needs to be ported to ethereal with a nice graph sometime later. try: -z io,users,ip see man-page svn path=/trunk/; revision=6972
2003-01-22SMB RTT statistics for tethereal and ethereal.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+21
SMB RTT statistics are similar to the RTT statistics already supported by ONC-RPC and DCE-RPC. It will present a table with all seen SMB commands and present the Min/Max and Avg response time in ms. Transaction2 and NT-Transaction commands are broken out and presented in its own subtables. tethereal feature is activated with -z smb,rtt switch and in ethereal it is activated either through -0z smb,rtt switch or through the Menu. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6966
2002-12-29From rmkml: support for capturing from a pipe in Tethereal.Guy Harris1-5/+13
Fix up the documentation of the "-i" flag in the Ethereal man page to note only that "netstat -i" and "ifconfig -a" *might* work, to specifically note that not all UNIXes support the "-a" flag to "ifconfig", and to note that pipe data must be in *standard* libpcap format. Document the support for pipes in the "-i" flag in Tethereal. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6822
2002-11-09Add support for SIGINFO on systems that have it.Guy Harris1-1/+3
svn path=/trunk/; revision=6590
2002-11-04New tap extension to tethereal: ProtoColInfoRonnie Sahlberg1-1/+30
Using this command line option you canb now place any arbitrary display-filter fields on the COL_INFO line. Assume you want NFS dissector in tethereal to put ALL filehandle hashes (nfs.fh.hash) on COL_INFO. No worries, just add -z proto,colinfo,nfs.fh.hash,nfs.fh.hash as a parameter to tethereal. Never again do you need to hack tethereal and recompile just because you want some extra info on the COL_INFO line. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6560
2002-11-03Add references to 'tethereal -D' in the '-i' section.Gerald Combs1-7/+8
svn path=/trunk/; revision=6551
2002-11-01New tap extension for tethereal : ProtocolHierarchyStatistics.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+10
Similar to what is available on ethereal:/Tools/ProtocolHierarchyStatistics but this one can handle ALL protocols that tethereal has dissectors for. Maybe a gtk/gtk2 version of this should replace the existing one in ethereal? Try -z io,phs or -z io,phs,<filter> to test it. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6532
2002-11-01New tap for tethereal: io statistics that provides frames/bytes counts for ↵Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+11
frames matching user specified filters. Try it with -z io,stat,1,nfs,smb,arp on a capture containing both nfs, cifs and arp traffic. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6531
2002-10-23From Ronnie Sahlberg: add a tap for statistics for DCERPC interfaces.Guy Harris1-0/+16
svn path=/trunk/; revision=6479
2002-09-26Updated RPCSTAT for tethereal. The command now takes a filter string as an ↵Ronnie Sahlberg1-1/+7
optional extra parameter. This makes it possible to generate any types of stats based on user defined subsets of the capture. Try -z rpc,rtt,100003,3,nfs.fh.hash==0x12345678 NFS rtt statistics for a specific file. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6337
2002-09-09Allow the "manuf" file to contain well-known MAC addresses and addressGuy Harris1-2/+16
ranges specified with a mask, as well as manufacturer OUIs. Match the address range values, as well as MAC addresses and manufacturer OUIs, when translating MAC addresses to names. Have "make-manuf" read a file containing the well-known addresses and append it to the list of OUIs. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6234
2002-09-05New type of onc-rpc statistics.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+7
try: -z rpc,programs svn path=/trunk/; revision=6190
2002-09-05Added a mutex to protect a critical region in Gtk2 where the list can beRonnie Sahlberg1-4/+4
modified while the draw thread is walking it. Changed the cmdline switch to -z so the same one can be used both for ethereal and tethereal. Updated man pages to reflect the RPCSTAT feature. (Try this with Tools/Statistics/ONC-RPC/RTT and load a capture containing onc-rpc. ) svn path=/trunk/; revision=6189
2002-09-04Clean up white space, and fix a pod2man warning.Guy Harris1-6/+5
svn path=/trunk/; revision=6177
2002-09-04Tap api. tap is a simple api that can be used for arbitrary extensions.Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+15
One example extension is rpcstat. Try -Z rpc,rtt,100003,3 as argument to tethereal when reading a capture containing NFSv3 packets. tap-rpcstat.[ch] is intended to demonstrate the api and can be used to base other extensions on. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6175
2002-08-20Add -S option to tethereal. It is the equivalent to Ethereals displayJörg Mayer1-0/+5
packets in real time feature. svn path=/trunk/; revision=6034
2002-07-31From Motonori Shindo: support for reading CoSine L2 debug output.Guy Harris1-6/+7
svn path=/trunk/; revision=5922
2002-07-16From Graeme Hewson:Guy Harris1-1/+2
Allow "-" as the output file name in Wiretap, referring to the standard error. Optimize the capture loop. Fix some of the error-message printing code in Ethereal and Tethereal. Have Wiretap check whether it can seek on a file descriptor, and pass the results of that test to the file-type-specific "open for output" routine. Have the "open for output" routines for files where we need to seek when writing the file return an error if seeks don't work. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5884
2002-05-26From Heikki Vatiainen: clarify, in the Ethereal man page, how to removeGuy Harris1-2/+21
noise from the packet trace display. Propagate those changes to the Tethereal man page. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5570
