Establish an FTP, TFTP, or XMODEM connection to the router from an
MS-DOS PC or Sun workstation to transfer a copy of the file; then, use the
Packet Dump utility to display the packets in hexadecimal format.
See “Using a Sun Workstation or MS-DOS PC to Display Packets
” on
page B-31
.
The Packet Dump utility shows the same information about each packet as the
Technician Interface, but it does not provide options for specifying the packet
by number or quantity.
See “Displaying the File with Packet Dump
” on page B-35.
Implementation Notes
Packet Capture copies only packets that are error free; it does not copy packets
containing errors.
Packet Capture saves the MAC addresses in native media format.
Packet Capture does not display frame check sequence (FCS) fields.
On a BayStack ARN router, Packet Capture prompts for the module number of the
interface. Specify 1 for synchronous interfaces. For interfaces that are configured
with a WAN service other than synchronous (for example, BOT or ISDN
interfaces), use the module number listed in Table B-1
.
Table B-1. Packet Capture Module Numbers for ARN Interfaces
(Except Synchronous)
ARN Interface
Module Number for
Packet Capture
Base module (XCVR1 or TOKEN1) 1
First WAN adapter module interface (COM1 or ISDN1) 2
Second WAN adapter module interface (COM2 or ISDN2) 3
Expansion module interface (XCVR2, TOKEN2, or COM3 to
COM5)
