Click Maintenance > Diagnostics > Wireless Frame Capture > Files to open this screen. This screen lists the
files of wireless frame captures the Zyxel Device has performed. You can download the files to your
computer where you can study them using a packet analyzer (also known as a network or protocol
analyzer) such as Wireshark.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Capture Click this button to have the Zyxel Device capture frames according to the settings
configured in this screen.
You can configure the Zyxel Device while a frame capture is in progress although you
cannot modify the frame capture settings.
The Zyxel Device’s throughput or performance may be affected while a frame capture
is in progress.
After the Zyxel Device finishes the capture it saves a combined capture file for all APs.
The total number of frame capture files that you can save depends on the file sizes and
the available flash storage space. Once the flash storage space is full, adding more
frame captures will fail.
Stop Click this button to stop a currently running frame capture and generate a combined
capture file for all APs.
Reset Click this button to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
