3Com Switch Reference

3Com calls their port analyzer/monitor feature RAP (Roving Analysis Port).

For information on particular switches, see the documentation for the switch. There are links to that documentation from the 3Com Support & Downloads page. The relevant documents are usually command references, administration console guides, administration guides, and the like.

SuperStack II Switch 3300 (10/100MBit manageable switch)

The Analysis Port is where Wireshark must be connected to, the Monitor Port is where the traffic is captured from.

Don't forget to:

Remarks:

See CaptureSetup/Ethernet for general information about capturing using monitor mode (or roving analysis as 3Com calls it).

Discussion
