Abstract
A protocol analyzer for a test system has a control system coupled to a first interface and a second interface. The first interface receives a packet from a packet network. The control system receives the packet from the first interface and either deletes the packet or transfers the packet to the second interface based on a destination address in the packet. The second interface transfers the packet to another protocol analyzer. The destination address could be a MAC address.
