SonicOS 7.0 Tools & Monitors
Starting and Stopping Packet Capture
You can start a packet capture that uses default settings without configuring specific criteria for packet capture, display, FTP export, and other settings. If you start a default packet capture, the SonicWall network security appliance captures all packets, except those for internal communication, and stops when the buffer is full or when you click Stop Capture.
To manage packet captures, navigate to MONITOR | Tools & Monitor > Packet Monitor and select the Captured Packets tab:
- To set the statistics back to zero, click Clear.
- To start the packet capture click Start Capture.
- To stop the packet capture, click Stop Capture.
