Note: Verify the Date / Time (page 5-56)before using the logging utilities to ensure meaningful data.

The Network Capture panels provide configuration options for logging utilities. Two types of logging are configurable:

•Netlog is a Windows CE utility that monitors network traffic. Netlog creates a .CAP file that can be read using Microsoft Windows Network Monitor or any compatible tool that supports .CAP files.

•NDISLog monitors the NDIS interface between the Summit radio and the NDIS driver. This utility creates a .TXT log file.

Netlog

Use this control panel to configure the Netlog utility. By configuring Netlog using the control panel, Netlog remains running across a warmboot. However, please note that:

•Netlog first stores data to a file named netlog0.cap, then netlog1.cap. Any time the current file reaches maximum size, Netlog switches to the other file.

•If the log file is stored in the root directory, any previous data is lost and a new log file started after the warmboot

•If the log file is stored in \System, all previous data is saved across the warmboot.

•If Netlog is enabled across the warmboot, a series of brief popups may be displayed during the boot cycle. No user interaction is required.
