When using the "Multiple Files" option while doing a capture
|
||||
(see: <xref linkend="ChCapCaptureFiles"/>),
|
||||
the capture data is spreaded over several capture files, called a file
|
||||
set. Ethereal tries to find the files matching the same filename pattern
|
||||
than the currently loaded file. This will only work, if all the files
|
||||
of the file set are located in the same directory.

As it can become tedious to work with a file set by hand, Ethereal

provides some features in the "File" menu to handle these file sets in

<para>
|
||||
A filename in a file set uses the format Prefix_Number_DateTimeSuffix
|
||||
which might look like this: "test_00001_20060420183910.pcap".
|
||||
All files of a file set share the same prefix (e.g. "test") and suffix
|
||||
(e.g. ".pcap") and a varying middle part.
|

</para>

<para>
|
||||
To find the files of a file set, Ethereal scans the directory where the
|
||||
currently loaded file resides and scans for files matching the same filename
|
||||
pattern (prefix and suffix) than the currently loaded file.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
This simple mechanism usually works well, but has it's drawbacks. If several
|
||||
file sets were captured with the same prefix and suffix, Ethereal will detect
|
||||
them as a single file set. If files were renamed or spreaded over several
|
||||
directories the mechanism will fail to find all files of a set.
