49.3.1 The Packet Capture Files Screen
Click
Maintenance > Diagnostics > Packet Capture > Files
to open the packet capture files
screen. This screen lists the files of packet captures stored on the UAG or a connected USB storage
device. 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.
Figure 396

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Capture
Click this button to have the UAG capture packets according to the settings
configured in this screen.
You can configure the UAG while a packet capture is in progress although you cannot
modify the packet capture settings.
The UAG’s throughput or performance may be affected while a packet capture is in
progress.
After the UAG finishes the capture it saves a separate capture file for each selected
interface. The total number of packet 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 packet captures will fail.
Stop
Click this button to stop a currently running packet capture and generate a separate
capture file for each selected interface.
Reset
Click this button to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
