Nortel Networks NN46110-602 manual Enabling packet capture on a VPN Router

Chapter 5 Packet capture 111

•Delete a capture object or capture files when you no longer need them to free up memory or disk space.

•Do not run capture objects for physical interfaces or tunnels at the same time that you run the global IP capture object (some packets are captured more than once).

Enabling packet capture on a VPN Router

You must have a serial connection to capture packets. You cannot enable packet capture through a Telnet session.

To prepare to run packet capture on the VPN Router:

1If necessary, boot the VPN Router with a software version that has the PCAP feature.

2Turn on the terminal or PC.

3Configure the terminal or PC as follows:

•9600 baud

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•No parity

•No flow control

4Connect the serial cable (supplied with the VPN Router) from the VPN Router serial port to the terminal or to the communications port on the PC.

5On the PC, start HyperTerminal* or another terminal emulation program and click Enter.

The Welcome window appears.
