Use the 'display-filter' option in order to change the view of a capture file (tmp file). Because full dissection has not been done on the packets, the filter fields are predefined and limited. A capture filter maintains a high rate of capture while it filters. Use the 'capture-filter' option in order to select which packets to display or save to disk during capture. ^C can be used to abort and get the switch prompt back in the middle of a capture if required.

Use the 'detail' option for detailed protocol information. This is a summary view of output from the ethanalyzer local interface inband command.

It decodes packets captured by libpcap, the packet capture library. Wireshark is an open-source, network protocol analyzer widely used across many industries and educational institutions. This document describes the Ethanalyzer, a Cisco NX-OS integrated packet capture tool for control packets based upon Wireshark.
