Reusable Filters with Multiple Filter Points<br />
Using Filters in the Quick Select Window<br />
Once you have created a filter from the Quick Select window, you can<br />
use (and reuse) it as a Mining filter, Source filter, Display filter, or<br />
Statistics filter. Table 6-1 summarizes the differences between each of<br />
these filter points. Figure 6-2 illustrates the Source, Mining, and<br />
Statistics filter points; refer to Applying <strong>Adaptive</strong> Display Filters on page<br />
136 for information on using Quick Select filters as Display filters with<br />
<strong>Adaptive</strong> Session/Packet data.<br />

Filter Type & Description How Applied? <strong>Mode</strong>?<br />
Source Filters<br />
Source Filters are applied at the network interface.<br />
They exclude packets matching specified criteria<br />
from monitoring or capture:<br />
• Monitor statistics in the Quick Select window<br />
will not include packets excluded by a source<br />
filter. This includes both the Graph panel and all<br />
Statistics panel tabs.<br />
• Postcapture analysis will not include packets<br />
excluded by a source filter. This includes both<br />
<strong>Adaptive</strong> and raw packet postcapture views.<br />
Note: Because source filters prevent matching<br />
packets from ever being seen by <strong>Sniffer</strong> <strong>Adaptive</strong><br />
<strong>Application</strong> <strong>Analyzer</strong>, you should apply them<br />
carefully.<br />
Mining Filters<br />
Mining filters are applied when you click the Mine<br />
button to retrieve stored packet data (ASPs or raw<br />
packets) from the capture buffer. They are used to<br />
focus postcapture analysis on packet data matching<br />
specified criteria.<br />
Right-click a stream in the<br />
Navigation panel, choose Apply<br />
Source Filter, and select the<br />
filter to use as a source filter.<br />
Once you’ve applied a source<br />
filter to a stream, its entry in the<br />
Navigation panel appears with a<br />
distinctive icon when selected.<br />
Select a filter from the Mining<br />
Filtering dropdown at the base<br />
of the Quick Select window<br />
before clicking the Mine button.<br />
Alternatively, you can use the<br />
Edit Filter button in the<br />
Summary dialog box that<br />
appears after clicking Mine.<br />
