SNOOP COMMANDS

 

Use snoop commands to monitor wireless traffic, by using a Distributed MAP as a sniffing device. The MAP copies the sniffed 802.11 packets and sends the copies to an observer, which is typically a protocol analyzer such as Ethereal or Tethereal.

(For more information, including setup instructions for the monitoring station, see the “Remotely Monitoring Traffic” section in the “Troubleshooting an WX Switch” chapter of the Wireless LAN Switch Configuration Guide.)

This chapter presents snoop commands alphabetically. Use the following table to locate commands in this chapter based on their use.
