I use Ethereal. The best part is that it is free. If you want to set up
quick filters, you can always click on the FILTER button in the lower left
portion of the display window. It opens up a new window. In the new
window, click ADD EXPRESSION. It brings up a sort of filter wizard, for
lack of a better term. You can pick things out of a list and include
operators like "is equal to, lt, gt, etc"

recommendation ..... ?

Hi Guys!

Anybody has any suggestion as to what sniffer software is good? for
monitoring or troubleshooting LAN or router WAN interfaces.

Aside from NA Sniffer Pro, Ethereal, & Iris products which one has the best
feature as compared to pricing (below 5K).

Anybody using Ethereal .... how do we set filter for capture packets i.e.
what's the filter expression for a filter to include packets into a MAC / IP
address.

thanks!

I don't think it is possible as it is a lower-end switch.
