Packet Capture File Download

Packet Capture File Download allows you to download the capture file by TFTP to a configured TFTP server or by
HTTP(S) to a PC. The captured packets are stored in file /tmp/apcapture.pcap on the AP. A capture is automatically
stopped when the capture file download command is triggered.
Because the capture file is located in the RAM file system, it disappears if the AP is reset.
The following table describes the fields to configure the packet capture status.
