And, according to
http://telephonyonline.com/backoffice/print/telecom_acterna_creates_new/
we have "THE HISTORY OF ACTERNA"
1923 - Communications test company Wandel & Goltermann founded
1974 - TTC founded in 1974, becomes third largest communications test
company
1998 - Wandel & Goltermann merges with Wavetek, becomes WWG, second
largest test company
1999 - WWG acquires ADA
2000 - Dynatech buys WWG, merges with TTC and changes name to
Acterna. Acterna acquires Cheetah Technologies
and so on. (Almost as much fun as watching telephone service
providers thrashing in the US; there are probably some outside the US
that have been as much fun to watch.)
(For even more Acterna/JDSU historical fun, see
http://www.lightreading.com/document.asp?doc_id=74450
.)
That's why there are several file types for Acterna on the ProConvert
file types page. The only one that lists "WAN" is Domino.
BTW, their PVA-1000 VoIP Network Analysis Suite reads several
different types of capture files:

although they're using the old name for one of the file types (the one
beginning with "E" rather than "W" :-)).
