Anyone knows how to start capturing packets from Mikrotik router using packetizer?.
I can’t find a way to do it, and can not find any documentation about it.
Is that the one that is a re-packaged Ethereal? I think so.
For Ethereal, you just start sending on the MikroTik end, and start capturing on the local end.
In Winbox, Tools > Packet Sniffer. Go to settings, and set up the streaming.
That will send the packets you sniff on the MT to some destination. Then just turn on the sniffer at that destination.
Thanks for the help.
I did that and found just malformed packets but nothing of the traffic going trough the router. I have to tell packetyzer to explicity decode those packets or I’m doing someting wrong?.
I was worried also about receiving packets from the internal network along with the packets comming from Mikrotik’s sniffer. i just shut down capturing in promiscuous mode en Packetyzer. Just want to be sure is everything the way it should be.
Interesting. Well, I did nothing special in Ethereal, but who knows if they made any changes when they built Packetyzer.
As for only seeing things from the remote capture, you can filter for that.
Never mind
I’ve found it does that when a try to sniff the local interface or both interfaces, but if I only sniff the public interface it goes just fine.
