Configuring local packet capture
Perform this task to capture incoming packets and save the captured packets to a local file or to a remote file on an FTP server. To display the captured packets on the local device, use the packet-capture read command. To display the captured packets on the FTP server, use the Wireshark client connected to the FTP server. To stop the capture while it is capturing packets, use the packet-capture stop command.
