Description
This article describes how to collect sniffer captures on each port of a FortiSwitch.
Scope
FortiSwitch v7.x or later.
Solution
By default, the diag sniffer on internal will only show traffic going to the internal port.
To get the sniffer information on each port the following configuration is required:
- A device should already be connected to the particular port where the sniffer information is required.\
- sflow should be enabled on the same port along with sample-rate set to 1.
Packets should now be seen in both directions by using the command
"diagnose sniffer packet sp15"
where 15 is the port number.
To configure:
S448DP3X16xxxxxx # config switch interface
S448DP3X16xxxxxx (interface) # edit port15
S448DP3X16xxxxxx (port15) # set packet-sampler enabled
S448DP3X16xxxxxx (port15) # Set packet-sample rate 1
S448DP3X16xxxxxx (port15) # next
S448DP3X16xxxxxx (interface) # end
S448DP3X16xxxxxx #
To verify:
S448DP3X16xxxxxx # diagnose sniffer packet sp15
interfaces=[sp15]
filters=[none]
