the decodes specified, limited to the traffic coming in over the channel(s)
specified.

When you’re through defining the filterset, 622Vu Advisor displays the new-
capture specifications for verification (including what filterset you’re using, as
described on page 80):

Then the new-capture session proceeds as described above under Capturing
Using an Existing Filter (page 82).

Using the VCC Tab During
FilterSet Definition

 

Use the VCC tab (right) to limit the
capture to only those cells/PDUs having
a specific VCC(s).  By default (i.e., if
this tab is blank), the filterset logic
captures traffic for all VCCs.

•

 

Click Add to add a VCC to the list.
622Vu Advisor opens a dialog box
that lets you specify the components
of the VCC individually:
