LCOS offers you two ways of recording data packets for the purpose of troubleshooting.
One way is to execute the console command lcoscap. 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".
Another way is to use the much more convenient method with WEBconfig. This allows you to specify different parameters and record the data packets of selected interfaces, which you subsequently write to a results file for analysis.
This method offers you several advantages:
- You do not need any special software, because you can run WEBconfig on any Web browser.
- There is no need to input any CLI commands. Instead, you work with a convenient menu.
- If you use WEBconfig over HTTPS, the confidentiality and security of captured traffic is guaranteed.
The LCOScap client is able to connect to the device via IPv4 or IPv6.
