Fluke OptiView Getting Started Manual page 23

If you have accessed the Capture screen through the Capture button, located throughout
the Wireless Network Analyzer user interface, that source and/or destination device will
populate the Source and Destination fields in this screen. The default is <Any>, which is
equivalent to all devices.
Under special circumstances, two Access Points with the same SSID
on the same channel can be linked together in "bridge mode."
Normally, you would not select both the source and destination
devices to be both Access Points. Client to client capturing is not
supported. Access Point to Any, and Access Point to client are
supported.
The Source and Destination field allows you to specify the source device and destination
device MAC addresses between which packets will be captured. You may also select a
device and then check
devices will be included in the capture.
The Front Page screen shows both the device name and MAC
address.
- Select this radio button to filter only on packets being sent from the left address to
the right address.
- Select this radio button to filter only on packets being sent from the right address to
the left address.
- Select this radio button to filter on all packets being sent between the two different
addresses.
Channel - The channel number is automatically resolved when you select or enter a MAC
address. The Source and Destination devices must be on the same channel or a warning
popup will display indicating that data can only be captured between two wireless devices
on the same channel communicating with each other. The Channel selection list box is
populated with the channel number of the last device (Source or Destination) selected.
Remember, both devices must be using the same channel number.
Slice Size - Determines how much of the packet is captured. The first 128, 256, 512 bytes
can be captured, or Full Packets can be captured.
Total Frames - Shows the number of frames captured. With Undecryptable un-checked,
Total Frames is the sum of FCS Errors, Total Captures and Undecryptable packets. If
Undecryptable is checked, Total Frames is the sum of only Total Captures and FCS Errors.
