- To decode NetPerfMeter packets, particularly over TCP and UDP, it may be necessary to configure ["Decode As" rules](https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChCustProtocolDissectionSection.html#ChAdvDecodeAs). While SCTP (by [Payload Protocol Identifiers](https://www.iana.org/assignments/sctp-parameters/sctp-parameters.xhtml) 36 and 37) and DCCP (by [Service Code](https://www.iana.org/assignments/service-codes/service-codes.xhtml) "npmp") for unambiguous identification of the NetPerfMeter payload, Wireshark has to rely on heuristics for TCP and UDP. They may fail to recognise the NetPerfMeter payload. The "Decode As" rules configuration in the "Analyze" menu allows to set explicit rules for TCP ports (e.g. 8999, 9000, and 9001) and UDP port numbers (e.g. 8999 and 9000) for decoding matching packets as NetPerfMeter payload.
