Analysis should not stop or even start with just a protocol anaylzer(say Ethereal). You can apply NSM (Network Security Monitoring)principles using a reference implementation like SGUIL(http://www.sguil.net) for a more robust architecture. To get an idea/ example take a look at Structured Traffic Analysis available as aPDF here:
http://www.insecuremagazine.com/INSECURE-Mag-4.pdf
and NSM
