Usage Guidelines
These commands direct an AP to send Wi-Fi packet captures to a client packet analyzer
utility such as Airmagnet, Wireshark and so on, on a remote client.
Before using these commands, you need to start the packet analyzer utility on the client and
open a capture window for the port from which you are capturing packets. The packet
analyzer cannot be used to control the flow or type of packets sent from the APs.
The packet analyzer processes all packets. However, you can apply display filters on the
capture window to control the number and type of packets being displayed. In the capture
window, the timestamp displayed corresponds to the time that the packet is received by the
client and is not synchronized with the time on the AP.
Example
The following example starts the packet capture configuration:
(scalance)# pcap start ac:a3:1e:57:bd:60 10.163.148.35 5555 0 1518
