Is there a book, perhaps in dictionary form,
that comes close to providing answers for the 
multitude of different captured packets that I see 
( in this case, a campus network )? I would rather
use this shotgun approach than researching each
protocol separately book-by-book.
I'm clearly surprised by the variety of packets,
and am doing this merely out of ( keen )interest.

I have used ethereal on a campus network and I 
only recognise the basic communications. I don't need an in-depth
analysis ( although fine ) but I was unpleasantly surprised by what
little I .
