Cisco 4451 Capture Monitor

To configure a monitor capture specifying an access list or a class map as the core filter for the packet capture, use the monitor capture command in privileged EXEC mode. To disable the monitor capture with the specified access list or class map as the core filter, use the no form of this command.

monitor capture capture-name {access-list access-list-name | class-map class-map-name}

no monitor capture capture-name {access-list access-list-name | class-map class-map-name}

Examples

The following example shows how to define a core system filter using an existing access control list:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# ip access-list standard acl1
Device(config-std-nacl)# permit any
Device(config-std-nacl)# exit
Device(config)# exit
Device# monitor capture mycap access-list acl1
Device# end

The following example shows how to define a core system filter using an existing class map:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# ip access-list standard acl1
Device(config-std-nacl)# permit any
Device(config-std-nacl)# exit
Device(config)# class-map match-all cmap
Device(config-cmap)# match access-group name acl
Device(config-cmap)# exit
Device(config)# exit
Device# monitor capture mycap class-map classmap1
Device# end

Monitor Capture (interface/control plane)

To configure monitor capture specifying an attachment point and the packet flow direction, use the monitor capture command in privileged EXEC mode. To disable the monitor capture with the specified attachment point and the packet flow direction, use the no form of this command.

monitor capture capture-name { interface type number | control-plane } { in | out | both }

no monitor capture capture-name { interface type number | control-plane } { in | out | both }

Examples

The following example shows how to add an attachment point to an interface:

Device> enable
Device# monitor capture mycap interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/1 in
Device# end

The following example shows how to add an attachment point to a control plane:

Device> enable
Device# monitor capture mycap control-plane out 
Device# end


monitor capture clear
To clear the contents of a packet capture buffer, use the monitor capture clear command in privileged EXEC mode.

monitor capture capture-name clear

The following example shows how to set a filter for IPv4 traffic:

Device> enable
Device# monitor capture match mycap ipv4 198.51.100.0/24 198.51.100.1 203.0.113.0/24 203.0.113.254
Device# end

monitor capture start

To start the capture of packet data at a traffic trace point into a buffer, use the monitor capture start command in privileged EXEC mode.

monitor capture capture-name start

monitor capture stop

To stop the capture of packet data at a traffic trace point, use the monitor capture stop command in privileged EXEC mode.

monitor capture capture-name stop
