Packet Capture
Packet Capture
Capture is used to analyze all or filtered data traffic and save complete or
truncated frames into a buffer. It allows observing network truncated data
precisely, or understanding errors and unwanted behavior.
Note: Not available with 200/400G and eCPRI dual port topology.
From the test menu, tap Functions, and the Packet Capture tab.
<Port #> button, when available, allows selecting the port to be
displayed. For Dual Port topology both ports are available. For the
Through Mode test application, packet capture applies only to the
Primary Port.
Capture Source
Specifies what kind of data to be captured.
Interface captures all received frames and saves them in the capture
buffer.
Filter # captures only frames that match the selected filter and saves
them in the capture buffer. Select the filter number from the list. Only
enabled filters are available, see Filters on page 686. The selected filter
will be reserved for data capture and will not be available for filter
configuration.
