MakeF
Creates a filter. You must supply a name and then answer a series of yes/no questions
to define the filter. You can choose whether to select All, Only the listed ones or all Except
the listed ones. If you select Only or Except, you can enter a list of Frame Types or
Message Types. When the list contains all of your selections, press Enter on a blank line
to finish.
You can enable the filter immediately.
The filter is stored in a disk file named NAME.FLT where NAME is the name you give
to the filter.
Med
Selects medium display of layer 3. The display includes Message Type, Information
Elements and the contents of Information Elements in hexadecimal, but not the
interpretation of the element contents. MED is displayed on the status line.
Mnem
Displays a list of message mnemonics and their values.
Mon
Monitors traffic in both directions. MON appears on the status line.
Some PrimeSwitch modules have multiple ports. You can choose to have one or more of
these ports monitored.
For single port modules (for example, the IPM or BRM), leave this set to its default value,
which is port 1.
For multiple port modules (for example, the DTM or QBRM), enter 1, 2, 3 or 4, or
multiples such as:
1 3 to monitor ports 1 and 3
1 2 3 4 to monitor all 4 ports, and so on.
MSDOS
Loads a copy of the MS-DOS command processor. The MS-DOS prompt is displayed and
you can run most DOS commands. There is only a limited amount of memory available,
so you may find that larger programs do not run.
To return to the analyser, type Exit and press Enter.
