Items Description

Frame Type Frame Type can have one of the following values:

Ethernet

LLC

SNAP
Note: On changing the Frame type field valid value of the following text field will vary
depending on the new frame type selected.
Value Valid value that can be entered in this text field depends on the option selected from the
preceding Frame Type selection menu. Below are the criteria for three different Frame Types:

For Ethernet: Values in the text field when Ethernet is selected as a Frame Type are
called etype. Valid values for etype range from 0x0300-Oxffff

For LLC: Valid value in this case is comprised of two different sub-values. a) DSAP: 1-
byte long string (0x00-0xff)
b) SSAP: 1-byte long string (0x00-0xff)

For SNAP: Valid value in this case also is comprised of two different sub-values.
a.OUI: OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) is value in format of xx-xx-xx where
each pair (xx) in string is a hexadecimal value ranges from 0x00-0xff. b. PID: If the
OUI is hexadecimal 000000, the protocol ID is the Ethernet type (EtherType) field
value for the protocol running on top of SNAP; if the OUI is an OUI for a particular
organization, the protocol ID is a value assigned by that organization to the protocol
running on top of SNAP.
In other words, if value of OUI field is 00-00-00 then value of PID will be etype
(0x0600-0xffff) and if value of OUI is other than 00-00-00 then valid value of PID will
be any value from 0x0000 to 0xffff .
Group Name A valid Group Name is a unique 16-character long string for every entry which consists of a
combination of alphabets (a-z or A-Z) and integers (0-9).
NOTE: Special characters and underscores are not allowed.
