Analyze network traffic
The IX10 device includes a network analyzer tool that captures data traffic on any interface and
decodes the captured data traffic for diagnostics. You can capture data traffic on multiple interfaces
at the same time and define capture filters to reduce the captured data. You can capture up to 10 MB
of data traffic in two 5 MB files per interface.
To perform a more detailed analysis, you can download the captured data traffic from the device and
view it using a third-party application.
Note
Data traffic is captured to RAM and the captured data is lost when the device reboots unless you
save the data to a file. See
Save captured data traffic to a file
.
