Packet Capture - ProfiTap ProfiShark 10G User Manual

Packet Capture

ProfiShark 10G has the ability to capture:
- Any type of frames (VLAN, VXLAN, MPLS, Pause frames, etc.)
- Any encapsulated frames
- CRC errors frames
- Short frames (< 64 bytes)
- Jumbo frames (> 1518 bytes)
- Any frames between 10 bytes and 10 Kbytes
Once the drivers have been properly installed, a new
connection is added in the Network Connection panel.
ProfiShark 10G acts as a 20 Gbit/s unidirectional NIC,
regardless of the network connection speed. Frame
aggregation is done in the ProfiShark hardware and respects
the original frame order. As opposed to FIFO (First In, First
Out), the ProfiShark 10G employs an FCFS (First Come, First
Served) mechanism.
A reboot of the computer may be required to refresh the
Winpcap/Wireshark device list. ProfiShark 10G has been tested
with all major capture/analyzer software.
