Capture Settings
The Capture app settings allow you to switch
between Wired and Wi-Fi, designate file and slice
sizes, and apply filters to capture and analyze
only certain packet types. For example, you can
set a wired filter to capture only packets related
to a specific application (based on IP address
and port number), or create a Wi-Fi filter to
capture only packets to and from a particular AP
or client.
When you open Capture from Home and do not
configure any filters, all packets from the switch
or channel are captured. The default Wired
capture saves all the packets sent from the local
switch to the Product. The default Wi-Fi capture
saves the packets seen on channel1.
If you open the Capture app from another
NetAlly test app, Capture filters are auto-
matically applied. Filters that can be applied
from other apps include Wired IP and MAC or Wi-
Fi Channel, Channel Width, and BSSID.
For example, the floating action menu on the Wi-
Fi app's BSSID Details screen below contains the
option to start a Wi-Fi Capture.
