There are currently two kinds of 802.11 traffic that can be analyzed: | There are currently two kinds of 802.11 traffic that can be analyzed: | ||
# PEEKREMOTE packets This kind of traffic is generated by access points and is send via UDP to a specified IP address and port. To analyze this traffic, the endpoint mode has to be enabled on an interface which receives this traffic. In the endpoint mode configuration, an IP address and port can be configured for which the Allegro Network Multimeter accepts packets. PEEKREMOTE packets usually do not contain complete IP packets, only 802.11 statistics that are evaluated by the Allegro Network Multimeter. | # PEEKREMOTE packets This kind of traffic is generated by access points and is send via UDP to a specified IP address and port.

# CAPWAP encapsulated packets In contrast to PEEKREMOTE, CAPWAP packets encapsulate complete IP packets which itself contain 802.11 information. Therefore, the endpoint mode must be configured for a specific IP and port and the tunnel view mode must be enabled too to let the Allegro Network Multimeter look inside the encapsulated packets. | # CAPWAP encapsulated packets In contrast to PEEKREMOTE, CAPWAP packets encapsulate complete IP packets which itself contain 802.11 information.
