Licensing Requirements and Limitations for Packet Capture
Involved Network Elements
Other network elements are not required.
Licensing Requirements
Packet capture is a basic feature of a switch and is not under License control.
Feature Support in V200R019C10
All models of S12700 and S12700E series switches support Packet Capture.
Feature Limitations
- In versions earlier than V200R013C00, the switch can capture only incoming packets on an interface but not outgoing packets. In V200R013C00 and later versions, the switch can capture outgoing packets on interfaces of X series cards.
- The packet capture configuration is not saved in the configuration file, and becomes invalid after a packet capture instance is complete.
- Different packet capture instances cannot be executed simultaneously. That is, a new packet capture instance can be executed only when the previous one is complete.
