Title: Enhancement
Ethereal Developers:
I'm not sure where to submit this, so I'll give this a shot. This was already posted, however, I'd like to give it an additional spin. Sorry if I've violated any protocols.
Original request:
Add application traffic information. Create the possibility to view network traffic at a higher level. From this higher level give the possibility to zoom in on a specific type of network traffic. For example, Ethereal looks at the network traffic and identifies different types of application traffic (smtp, http, netbios, dhcp, dns). So one can select smtp to look at the smtp packets (port 25) that go over the network. Or deselect http, netbios and dhcp and look at all the other traffic that is going over the network.
Additional spin:
If you've ever run windows defragmenter, of old, you saw all those detail boxes. Lots of them & color coded to sector type. I'd like to see the packets displayed in that venue. TCP would most likely need to have the ability to add rules to create affinity to color grouping. Basically the same request, just adding how to display.
