PCAP logging

¢
Status PCAP Logging
On this screen you can create a PCAP log file and save it for analysis at a later stage. PCAP
(Packet Capture) analyses the data traffic in the network at the phone-Ethernet interface.
This recording is carried out for diagnostic purposes and should only be made if
requested by service personnel.
¤
Click on Start. Every incoming or outgoing data packet to or from your phone is
recorded.
¤
Click on Stop to stop recording.
¤
To save the PCAP file (pcapdump.pcap), click on Store and select a directory in the file
system on your PC where the file should be stored.
Please note
u
The information is recorded in a ring buffer that has limited storage capacity. If the
buffer is full, the first packets will be overwritten and lost. You should therefore
attempt to record scenarios that are as short as possible.
u
This logging uses a lot of memory and CPU power and can negatively affect how
the phone behaves (e.g., slowing the display screen, distorting the ringer etc.)
