Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for facilitating analysis of a communications system through the use of a multi-protocol communications analyzer. A graphical user interface employed in connection with the multi-protocol communications analyzer enables a user to create a new domain, or modify an existing domain, that includes a list of ports selected by the user, where each port is associated with a particular communication link of the communications system. The ports are selected from a list of available ports displayed by the graphical user interface. The ports selected for inclusion in the domain can then be configured, by way of the graphical user interface, as desired. After the domain has been defined, the domain can then be used to analyze one or more of the links associated with the ports included in the domain.
