Chapter 5 Adding Custom Protocols to the ART Display 108 Sniffer Portable Professional You can add custom protocols to the ART display in the same way you add protocols for all monitor applications. Use the following procedure. To add custom protocols to the ART display: 1 Display the Options dialog box by selecting the Options command from the Tools menu. 2 In the Options dialog box, click on the Protocols tab. 3 The Protocols tab lets you add new upper-layer protocols for monitoring (or change the port numbers associated with existing upper-layer protocols). If the protocol you want to add runs over TCP, make sure the TCP tab at the bottom of the Protocols tab is displayed (this is the default). If the protocol you want to add runs over UDP, click on the UDP tab at the bottom of the Protocols tab. NOTE: ART does not support monitoring over protocols running over IPX in this release. 4 Scroll to the bottom of the tab and click in the Name cell. Type in the name by which you would like this protocol to be known in Sniffer displays. 5 Click in the adjoining Port cell and type in the port number on which the Sniffer should look for this protocol. 6 Click OK. You will be informed that the application must be restarted for your changes to take effect. Restart the application. 7 Display the ART window by selecting the Application Response Time command from the Monitor menu. 8 Click on the Properties button to display the ART Options dialog box. 9 Click on the Display Protocols tab in the ART Options dialog box. 10 Click on either the TCP or UDP tab at the bottom of the Display Protocols tab, depending on which type of protocol you added in Step 3. 11 Scroll down to display the entry for the protocol you added in the previous steps. Click the box next to this protocol to include it in ART displays.

Monitoring Your Network 12 Click OK on the ART Options dialog box. The ART application informs you that it must close and reopen the ART window for your changes to take place. Click Yes to close and reopen the window. 13 The ART window reopens with a new tab at the bottom for your custom protocol. User’s Guide 109
