Creating a simple filter
You can create a simple filter by manually entering the parameters for the filter that you want to create. Unlike creating a filter using the Make Filter command, you will have to manually define one or more of the parameters (address, protocol, and port settings) for the filter you want to create.
To create a simple filter by defining any combination of address, protocol, and port:
1. Do one of the following to display the list of filters:
• On the menu, click
• Click the Filters view in an open capture window
• Click the Filters options from the Capture Engine Capture Options dialog
2. Click . The Insert / Edit Filter dialog appears.
3. Complete the dialog and click . The new filter is now available whenever a list of available filters is displayed.
NOTE: Click on the dialog to learn about the available options and settings.
