The Network Monitor Parsers packages contain parsers for more than 400 network protocols, including RFC based public protocols and protocols for Microsoft products defined in the Microsoft Open Specifications for Windows and SQL Server. NetworkMonitor_Parsers.msi is the base parser package which defines parsers for commonly used public protocols and protocols for Microsoft Windows.

In this release, NetowrkMonitor_Parsers.msi continues to improve quality and fix bugs. It has included the following new and update parsers:

New: erf.npl (major), srtcp.npl (major), WSEventing.npl (major)

Updates: dhcp.npl, dsml.npl, frame.npl, mqds.npl, pgm.npl, rsvp.npl, rtcp.npl, smb.npl, smtp.npl, ssl.npl, stp.npl, tls.npl, trail.npl, udp.npl, wireless.npl, wsmv.npl

Parser Package Compatibility
This NetworkMonitor_Parsers.msi Version 3.4.2774 is compatible with the latest released add-on parser packages Office and SharePoint Products Network Monitor Parser 1.5, Lync Network Monitor Parsers 3.6, and Network Monitor Parsers for SQL Server 3.4.2774 in the same release.

For encrypted data, you can use the Network Monitor SSL decryption expert to decrypt the data first, then view the data using the parsers.
