  • Patent number: 7562156
    Abstract: A table-based packet sniffing/decoding system and method suitable for cluster server systems is provided. Packets having portions of various protocols are communicated between nodes of a cluster server. Fields of the packets are decoded using protocol definition tables and may be stored for subsequent analysis. A protocol is identified from a protocol identification field of a packet and the field definition table is identified for the identified protocol. The field definition table defines fields of packets for a particular protocol and identifies a field decode handler for use in decoding each field. A filter may be applied to selectively decode (or refrain from decoding) certain fields. A filter may also be applied to selectively decode particular protocols.
