ELAM captures only one packet at a time so it's not as useful for figuring out what packets are causing high CPU. An RP-inand SPAN will be much better. Once you find out which packets are going to the CPU and you think that maybe those packets should not have hit the CPU then ELAM could be useful.
BTW - there is no customer facing docs about ELAM as they are engineering level commands. That said it's pretty easy to capture an IP packet in ELAM. Reading all the fields in the DBUS and RBUS headers is another matter. -Ben On Oct 1, 2010, at 11:31 AM, Rin wrote: > Hi Ozgur, > > I saw TAC engineer do ELAM capture once but not understand much.
