Snoop Commands 579
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Command Line Reference
Defaults Snoop filters are unmapped by default.
Access Enabled.
History Introduced in WSS Software Version 4.0.
Usage You can map the same filter to more than one radio. You can map up to eight filters to the
same radio. If more than one filter has the same observer, the AP sends only one copy of a packet
that matches a filter to the observer. After the first match, the AP sends the packet and stops
comparing the packet against other filters for the same observer.
If the filter does not have an observer, the AP still maintains a counter of the number of packets that match the
filter. (See show snoop stats on page 572.)
Examples The following command maps snoop filter snoop1 to radio 2 on AP 3:
WSS# set snoop map snoop1 ap 3 radio 2
success: change accepted.

[stop-after num-pkts]

option, the filter operates until you disable it or until the AP is
restarted.
