4.8 Logging and Replay
When a sniffer is started, the captured network
traffic can be logged to a file. There are logging two
options, selected from the combobox in the Logging
section of the common configuration page.
- Record Text
Text logging writes a human-readable file containing one line
for each captured packlet. The information is exactly that
displayed on the packet display
page, with some header information.
- Record Binary
Binary logging file are intended to be replayed through a
replayer.
Replayer
The replayer configuration page is essentially the
same as the sniffer configuration page except:
-
The logging area only allows for the selection of a
file to be replayed, plus a speed-up/slow-down factor for replay.
-
The program area simply shows the filter program, and
the interface cannot be set.
-
The reset button does not appear.
In addition, the Event Commands page is disabled.
Otherwise, see Packet Filtering
and Graphic Display.
