Import a Trace

The Packet Tracing Menu contains an option that lets you import a trace file that is in libpcap format. After the file is imported, you can use the SmartTrace features to analyze the trace. The file can be a data set or a z/OS UNIX file (up to 64 KB).

To import a libpcap trace file

  1. Enter the /LIBPCAP panel shortcut.

    A panel prompts you for the file.

  2. Specify a description for the imported file and the name of the file being imported, and then press F6 (Action).

    The file is imported. You can view the imported file on the Saved Traces List panel.
