Filter Example, Template Combination

The Filter Design window in Figure 7-6 shows the capture filter with a logical com- bination built in the Template Combination box. This filter collects all traffic to and from a single station that make use of the HTTP or FTP protocols. The two tem- plates are combined with an OR statement to collect both types of protocols. The two templates are named HTTP_Activity_Station2 for the user-defined HTTP template and FTP_Activity_Station2 for the user-defined FTP tem- plate.

The conversation is specified without a second station and uses the -> indicator. Traffic is captured in the sending direction for a single station, regardless of the other station in the conversation. In the example, the station address has been defined as part of each custom filter template.
