Frame types are shown in Table 7-7:
Multi-State and Multi-Statement Filters
To create more complex filters, use Surveyor’s graphical scripting language. You’ll
find it intuitive and easy to use if you have experience doing simple programming
or experience working with “meta-languages.” After you become familiar with this
graphical scripting language, you’ll have a powerful tool for getting exactly the data
you want. It is recommended that you first have an understanding of filter templates
and creating single filter statements before attempting to create advanced filters.

bytes).
Jabber/Oversize All jabbers and oversize frames (default is packets greater than 1518
bytes).

size. Packet sizes less than this value are considered Fragments/
Undersize for THGm.
