Snoop Commands 577

set snoop

Configures a snoop filter.

Syntax set snoop filter-name [condition-list] [observer ip-addr][snap-lengthnum]

filter-name

Name for the filter. The name can be up to 15 alphanumeric characters,

 

with no spaces.

condition-list

Match criteria for packets. Conditions in the list are ANDed. Therefore, to

 

be copied and sent to an observer, a packet must match all criteria in the

 

condition-list. You can specify up to eight of the following conditions in a

 

filter, in any order or combination:

 

frame-type {eq neq} {beacon control data

 

management probe}

 

channel {eq neq} channel

 

bssid {eq neq} bssid

 

src-mac {eq neq lt gt} mac-addr

 

dest-mac {eq neq lt gt} mac-addr

 

host-mac {eq neq lt gt} mac-addr

 

mac-pairmac-addr1 mac-addr2

 

To match on packets to or from a specific MAC address, use the dest-mac

 

or src-macoption. To match on both send and receive traffic for a host

 

address, use the host-macoption. To match on a traffic flow (source and

 

destination MAC addresses), use the mac-pairoption. This option

 

matches for either direction of a flow, and either MAC address can be the

 

source or destination address.

 

If you omit a condition, all packets match that condition. For example, if

 

you omit frame-type, all frame types match the filter.

 

For most conditions, you can use eq (equal) to match only on traffic that

 

matches the condition value. Use neq (not equal) to match only on traffic

 

that is not equal to the condition value.

 

The src-mac, dest-mac, and host-macconditions also support lt (less

 

than) and gt (greater than).

observer ip-addr

Specifies the IP address of the station where the protocol analyzer is

 

located. If you do not specify an observer, the AP radio still counts the

 

packets that match the filter.

snap-length num

Specifies the maximum number of bytes to capture. If you do not specify

 

a length, the entire packet is copied and sent to the observer. Nortel

 

recommends specifying a snap length of 100 bytes or less.

Defaults No snoop filters are configured by default.

Access Enabled.
