Microsoft DirectX 8.0 (C++) |
To start the capture process, click the Start Capture button on the Netmon toolbar to open the capture view. Initially, you will see all the traffic that is passing through your adapter. You can filter that raw traffic stream to focus on only those packets that are of interest. By installing the Microsoft® DirectPlay® parsers, you essentially add four DirectPlay-oriented filters to Netmon that allow you to filter everything but DirectPlay traffic from your capture view.
To select a filter:
Click OK twice to return to the capture view, and you are ready to start viewing DirectPlay traffic.
You can also apply a filter to the capture process itself, rather than to the capture view. This allows you, for instance, to capture only IP packets with specified source and destination ports. See the Netmon documentation for details.
