RE: Packet analyzer [7:27295]
Maybe someone already posted this, but did anyone of you ever try Ethereal ? (http://www.ethereal.com) " Ethereal is a free network protocol analyzer for Unix and Windows. It allows you to examine data from a live network or from a capture file on disk. You can interactively browse the capture data, viewing summary and detail information for each packet. Ethereal has several powerful features, including a rich display filter language and the ability to view the reconstructed stream of a TCP session. It supports a *huge* list of protocols."

You may not necessarily need to schedule an outage on your serial link if your CSU/DSUs have external non intrusive monitoring port capabilities. If they do then all you need is a pair of bantam cables and plug one end of the pair into your T-1 module on the Advisor and plug the other ends into your CSU and away you go… You can not only sniff, but generate traffic for stimuli testing and basically use your advisor as a T berd.

I would also check into the distributed sniffer... -Original Message- From: Mike Sweeney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 26, 2001 8:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Packet analyzer [7:27295] For those using Sniffer, it's SnifferBook or the older version which is a the WANBook.. it's a smallish chassis that has changable cards with a couple of ether interfaces plus serial.

RE: Packet analyzer [7:27295]
Akim, The product that you may be looking for is made by Agilent Technologies (a HP spinoff). For more information visit this URL: http://onenetworks.comms.agilent.com/agilentadvisor/J2300E.asp The Agilent Advisor is powerful and imho offers similar levels of packet capture/decoding as the products you mentioned. Just beware, it isn't any cheap. As to where you physically connect the Agilent Advisor: it goes connected between your CSU/DSU and/or router and the physical media you use for that serial connection. Thus, it is service disrupting. In a production environment, you would need to use it during a scheduled maintenance window.

The same company has a similar product "Tokenpeek" that can capture Token rings packets. Data for both are captured by connecting to the Ether or Token switch. My question is: How do you capture the packets on a serial line? What software do you use and where do you physically connect?
