Snoop Commands
Use snoop commands to monitor wireless traffic, by using an MP as a sniffing device. The MP
copies the sniffed 802.11 packets and sends the copies to an observer, typically a protocol analyzer
such as Ethereal or Tethereal.
(For more information, including setup instructions for the monitoring station, see the “Remotely
Monitoring Traffic” section in the “Troubleshooting an MX Switch” chapter of the Trapeze
Mobility System Software Configuration Guide.)
