If you wanted to do this simply, just grab a linux machine with three network interfaces, and do this (assuming eth0 is 'real' and eth1 and eth2 are where you want to insert the tap)
brctl addbr sniff brctl addif sniff eth1 brctl addif sniff eth2 brctl stp sniff off You can then do a tcpdump on the 'sniff' interface and you'll see everything at a packet layer (not a frame layer). If you really REALLY want frames, it's harder, but mostly doable. It looks like that USB thing is only at the packet layer anyway, so you should be fine. --Rob On Thu, 21 May 2020 at 12:09, Richard Biggs <richard.bi...@health.qld.gov.au> wrote: > > Hi All, > > > > Looking for a standalone network tap, I can’t seem to find anything local in > Aus. > > > > Only needing something real basic like > https://www.dualcomm.com/products/usb-powered-10-100-1000base-t-network-tap > does anyone know who would be holding some stock? > > > > Cheers, > > > > RB > > > > > > ********************************************************************************** > > Disclaimer: This email and any attachments may contain legally privileged or > confidential information and may be protected by copyright.
