Open Source Network Monitor Parsers

  • Artikel

With the release of Network Monitor 3.2 we plan to do all of our parser development as an open source project on https://www.codeplex.com/NMParsers. We will be releasing parser packages for Microsoft Protocols on a regular schedule. All parser issues will be tracked, assigned, and fixed on CodePlex first. Then on a regular schedule, we will post a new installer package which will update your NM3.2 parsers.

Open Documentation = Open Parsers

In the beginning of this year we released the documentation of all the Windows Protocols on https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc216517.aspx. With NM3.2, we have also created parsers for most of the released protocol documentation. And as time passes, we will continue to update the released parsers as well as introduce new parsers.

3rd Party Development Welcome

So now it’s your turn to contribute. If you see a problem with a parser or decide that there’s a better way to describe the data, you can file an Issue Report against the parser and track it through CodePlex. If the change is implemented, the next install of the Microsoft Parsers will contain your change. You will also have access to the latest version of the NPL if you want to integrate it manually.

Also, if there’s a parser you want to share with the community, you can share your parsers here as well. We will be providing information on how to build a parser package as well as providing guidance on how to test your parsers. And the main project page will be updated to list all available packages.

Stay Tuned

Since the parsers will release with NM3.2 as well, the first release of a parser only package will happen sometime soon after. We are currently shooting for a monthly release cycle. You should see the first parser package posted in October 2008. Stay tuned to that site for updates and announcements.

    I’m so excited about this release I had to commandeer Paul’s blog for the day and write about it. My

    I can't tell from your description, but if you can send me the capture(use the email link from this blog) OR just send me all the HEX data in the packet and I can reconstruct it. There is a limitation with Information that is fragmented into multiple packets with in the same frame.  This is something we'll need to support with the engine, we call this inner frame fragmentation.  If this is the issue, there will be a limitation to parse it.

    This is exactly the issue I mentioned above. DHCP splits up a payload into fragments in the same packet.  This type of fragmentation can't be handled by our engine today. It is something on our radar, but it's difficult to say when there will be a built in solution. It would be possible to use the NMAPI in NM3.2 to put together the packets and create a new frame or possibly modify the current frame.  If you are interested, let me know and I can send you more specifics. Thanks, Paul

    I tried to parse NAP DHCP Enforcement SoH packet between Vista and Server 2008. The first 255 bytes of Vendor Specific Information are parsed correctly, however, the rest of data are not parsed. Is this a bug of Network Monitor SoH Parser ? If so, when will it be fixed ?

    Hi Paul, Thank you for your response. We captured NAP DHCP Enforcement packet between Vista and Server 2008. The data size of Vendor Specific Information in DHCP REQUEST is more than 255, so the data is devided into three parts. Private(0xFA) parts are shown as ContinueOption and are not parsed at all. Please see the parsed data shown below.  - VendorSpecificInformation:  - Type 43     Code: Vendor specific information, 43(0x2B)     Length: 255 UINT8(s)   - VendorSpecificExtension: NAP-CoID - Type 222      Code: NAP-CoID, 222(0xDE)      Length: 130 UINT8(s)      CoID: Binary Large Object (130 Bytes)   - VendorSpecificExtension: NAP-SoH - Type 220      Code: NAP-SoH, 220(0xDC)      Length: 255 UINT8(s)    - SOH: Vendor = Microsoft, Version 2, Request     - SoHHeader:      - OuterType: 7 (0x7)         Reserved:   (00..............)         OuterType: (..00000000000111) Vendor Specific        Length: 445 (0x1BD)        IANASMICode: Microsoft        InnerType: 2 (0x2)        InnerLength: 437 (0x1B5)     - SoHModeSubHeader:      - OuterType: 7 (0x7)         Reserved:   (00..............)         OuterType: (..00000000000111) Vendor Specific        Length: 30 (0x1E)        IANASMICode: Microsoft        CorrelationId: Binary Large Object (24 Bytes)        IntentFlag: Request        ContentType: 0x0, MUST be set to 0     - SSoH: Microsoft, ID = 0      - SystemHealthEntityId: SystemHealthId       - Type: 2 (0x2)          Mandatory: (0...............)
