Saving the Capture
At any time, you can save the capture as it’s displayed currently, using the Save
or Save As commands from the File menu: Save to resave the current file under
the same name; Save As to save the file under a different name. In the latter
case, 622Vu Advisor opens a standard dialog box that you’ll use to assign a name
to the capture file (name.cap format). If you omit the suffix, 622Vu Advisor
assigns it correctly. Captures can be stored anywhere, but typically reside in
622Vu Advisor’s \capture directory.
If you click Exit or New (capture) before saving
the previous capture, 622Vu Advisor asks
whether you want to save the capture before
proceeding (illustrated to the right for an Exit
before saving).
Displaying the PDU
After you stop an active capture, or when you open a capture file that was saved
previously, 622Vu Advisor lets you decode the captured traffic at the PDU level.
(You can’t decode PDU-level information during a live capture.) Double-click a
cell or PDU to decode that PDU. 622Vu Advisor opens a Decode window that
displays Protocol Data Unit (PDU) information for the currently selected
PDU/cell. The title bar identifies the PDU you’re looking at:
