In order to send packets on LAN, network devices need to know the IP and MAC address of the hosts they intend to communicate with. Address Resolution Protocol provides the mechanism to determine the MAC address associated with an IP address. These IP to MAC bindings are stored in each switch's ARP cache.
The packet capture utility can be used to observe live network traffic passed by EnGenius Switches. Since captures provide a live snapshot of traffic on the network, they can be immensely helpful in diagnosing and troubleshooting network issues. This article outlines how to remotely take a packet capture in Diag tools.
Choose ports to capture packets > input Duration in sec > click on “Capture”, then the Switch will collect the packets and download them with the .pcap file
2. Download Wireshark or other packet analysis tools to open up the .pcap file
