Defining Display Filters

Display filters limit the frames that can be displayed, but not what is captured (similar to any view
command). The filters to be displayed can be defined in multiple ways in the GUI application:
•
•
•
•
•
Regardless of the definition, each filter must be saved and identified with a name.

Displaying Filters Examples

Some examples of using display filters with the Fabric Analyzer local are provided in this section. The
brief option is used in all examples to restrict the size of the output. See
Example 49-2 Displays Only Fabric Login Server Traffic on VSAN 1
switch(config)# fcanalyzer local brief display-filter
(mdshdr.vsan==0x01)&&((fc.d_id==\"ff.ff.fe\"\|\|fc.s_id==\"ff.ff.fe\"))

You can trace all frames to and from a particular N port device. For example, to observe RSCNs from
the Fabric Controller and registration and/or query requests to the name server. See
Note The filter requires prior knowledge of the FC ID that is assigned to the N port. Issue the show flogi
database interface command before running fcanalyzer to obtain the FC ID. In this example, the N port
FC ID is 79.03.00.
Example 49-3 Displays All Traffic for a Particular N Port on VSAN 1
switch(config)# fcanalyzer local brief
display-filter(mdshdr.vsan==0x01)&&((fc.d_id==\"79.03.00\"\|\|fc.s_id==\"79.03.00\"))
