ap-traffic-capture

Packet capture is a means of intercepting packets traversing a managed network. The captured packets are inspected to identify inconsistencies in the network. Use the ap-traffic-capture command to configure packet capture parameters on a selected AP or a filtered set of APs. When you start a packet capture session, packets are captured, based on the configurations specified by you. For each packet capture session, a PCAP file is generated to which the captured packets are logged. This file is temporarily stored on the AP's controller. To view the file, export the file to a host running Wireshark.
