Go to Edit->Preferences and expand the Protocols option. Scroll down to TCP and make sure that "Analyze TCP sequence numbers" is checked. When you expand the TCP header in the detail window of your trace, you will now see an additional "SEQ/ACK analysis" sub-tree. Expand that and then expand the "TCP Analysis Flags" tree below that. This will tell you what event caused the packet to be flagged by the tcp.analysis.flags rule.

In an ethereal trace I encountered a frame which was colorized according to the tcp.analysis.flags rule. I would need to know the exact conditions which lead to that ethereal marked this frame. Can I find this out in any way in ethereal and how? I searched around quite a long time but did not find anything.

 

Best regards
