Before you begin:

You can configure the packet capture feature on an access point using the following CLI commands:

  • To enable packet capture feature for the access point:
    • To enable the packet capture to a file with all options:
      [edit]user@host# request wlan access-point packet-capture start access-point name interface interface-name duration capture-duration capture-file capture-file file-size-max file-size-max promiscuous capture-beacons filter-mac filter-mac

      For example:

      [edit]user@host# request wlan access-point packet-capture start mav-ap interface Radio1VAP0 + duration 300 capture-file tmp/mav_ap_capture.pcap file-size-max 2096 + promiscuous disable-beacons filter-mac 00:11:22:33:44:55
    • To enable the packet capture to a file with mandatory options:
