Remember that whenever a protocol or field name occurs in anĮxpression, the 'exists' operator is implicitly called.

The comparison operators can be expressed either throughĮnglish-like abbreviations or through C-like symbols: Semantically equivalent to the sequence of bytes that it spans, not itsĭisplayed text in the protocol tree. The value of a field is not necessarily what appears in the With comparable values (which may be literals, other fields, or function

In a filter, an exists operator for that protocol or field implicitlyĮach field has a value, and that value can be used in operations Whenever a protocol or field appears as the argument of a function To see all packets that contain a Token-Ring RIF field, use Protocol, the filter would be 'ip' (without the quotation marks).
