Enter the following command if you configured the packet capture instance to
copy only incoming packets, and you want it to terminate when it matches packet
data to the filter 2 match set parameters:
rx-trigger match2

Assigning Filters

You can specify a string of alphanumeric characters to compare with the packet
data. When packet capture matches packet data to the string, it either copies the
packet to the packet capture file or it terminates without copying the packet.
Packet capture supports two filters for incoming packets and two filters for
outgoing packets.
The packet capture filter names are as follows:

Determines whether packet capture terminates when it finds a match, copies a

Indicates the hexadecimal number or string of characters that packet capture
uses to compare to the data in a packet.
