Packet capturing

The command line tool lcoscap allows you to capture data packets to analyze any errors or problems. This command enables the capture of packets and writes the results to a file that you can open and analyze with a tool like "Wireshark".

LCOS offers you an additional, significantly more convenient method: In WEBconfig, go to Extras > LCOS menu tree > Setup > WLAN > Packet-Capture > WLAN-Capture-Format to select a file format used by the device to capture data packets on the selected interfaces and save them to a results file.

After setting the parameters, navigate to Extras > Packet-Capturing and click on Go! to start capturing packets. You can then open the generated file with a tool such as "Wireshark".





This method offers you several advantages:

Packet capturing works with IPv4 and IPv6 connections.
