Create a packet tracing file

You can create a packet tracing file to record the network activities of an appliance.

2. On the appliances tree, select the appliance you want to record network activities on and click Packet tracing.
3. In the Command line parameters field, type parameters for the packet tracing as needed.
4. Click tcpdump start.
   A packet tracing file is generated and appears with its name, size, and date in the list under Results (dump).
