PCAP logging

Status PCAP Logging
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 diag-
nostic 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 and

To save the PCAP file on your computer, click on Download and select a directory in the file system
on your computer where the file should be stored.
¤
To delete the recorded log file from the internal device storage, click on Clear.

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.
