Spirent TestCenter: How do I capture with intent to analyze generated traffic?
Environment/Versions
Spirent TestCenter
Capture features
Answer
TestCenter captures only Transmit - Control plane traffic.
Capture Source
Tx Mode (only capture transmit frames [control plane traffic only] from the port)
Rx Mode (capture control and data plane traffic received on the port)
Tx/Rx Mode (capture both transmit frames [control plane traffic only] and receive frames [control and data plane traffic])
If you wish to make a capture of the Data plane you will Transmit you can put the port in diagnostic loopback and capture the Receive Control and Data plane traffic.
For help in the Capture Window of the GUI, select F1 (i.e., help). Hitting it will directly open Help on this Topic.
Enhancement Requests:
CR: 2219385277 – new CR - enhancement to have global view for captures on all ports to easily see which ports has captured frames instead of going to each port one by one
CR: 191753576 – declined CR – to show captured frame counts while capture is still running.
CR: 163321121 – declined CR – making changes in capture view is not applied automatically when starting capture. Customer wants a warning or have it apply automatically.
