PacketFileCapture
InPacketFileCapturemodetheAPstorescapturedpacketsintheRAMfilesystem.
Uponactivation,thepacketcaptureproceedsuntiloneofthefollowingoccurs:
•Thecapturetimereachesconfiguredduration
•Thecapturefilereachesitsmaximumsize
•Theadministratorstopsthecapture
Duringthecapture,youcanmonitorthecapture
status,elapsedcapturetime,andthecurrentcapturefilesize.
Thisinformationcanbeupdated,whilethecaptureisinprogress,byclickingRefresh.
Table49describesthefieldstoconfigurethepacketcapturestatus.
RemotePacketCapture
RemotePacketCaptureallowsyoutospecifya remoteportasthedestinationforpack etcaptures.Thisfeature
worksinconjunctionwiththeWiresharknetworkanalyzertoolforWindows.Apack etcaptureserverrunson
theAPandsendsthecapturedpacketsviaaTCPconnectiontotheWiresharktool.
A
WindowsPCrunningtheWiresharktoolallowsyoutodisplay,log,andanalyzecapturedtraffic.
Whentheremotecapturemodeisinuse,theAPdoesn'tstoreanycaptureddatalocallyinitsfilesystem.
YourcantraceuptofiveinterfacesontheAPatthesametime.Howe ver,you
muststartaseparateWireshark
sessionforeachinterface.YoucanconfiguretheIPportnumberusedforconnectingWiresharktotheAP.The
defaultportnumberis2002.Thesystemuses5consecutiveportnumbersstartingwiththeconfiguredportfor
thepack etcapturesessions.
Ifafirewallisinstalled
betweentheWiresharkPCandtheAP,theseportsmustbeallowe dtopassthroughthe
firewall.ThefirewallmustalsobeconfiguredtoallowtheWiresharkPCtoinitiateTCPconnectiontotheAP.
Table49:PacketFileCapture
Field Description
CaptureInterface SelectanAPCaptureInterfacenamefromthedrop‐downmenu.APcapture
interfacenamesareeligibleforpacketcaptureare:
• brtrunk‐LinuxbridgeinterfaceintheAP
•eth0‐802.3tr afficontheEthernetport.
•wlan0‐VAP0trafficonradio1.
•wlan1‐VAP0trafficonradio2.
•radio1‐802.11trafficon
radio1.
•radio2‐802.11trafficonradio2.
Note:TheDWL‐3600APhasonlyoneradio.Theavailableoptionsonthe
DWL‐3600APdonotincludewlan0orradio1.
CaptureDuration Specifythetimedurationinsecondsforthecapture(range10to3600).
MaxCaptureFileSize Specifythemaximumallowedsizefor
thecapturefileinKB(range64to4096).
