The network environment is a common star network with network switch (not hub). I need to capture the packets that to a specific IP address from anywhere (e.g. any PC to PC01) I've a computer that connected to a normal switch port (not management port) has wireshark installed (e.g. PC02) What I need is use this PC02 to capture all traffic that the destination is PC01 and the source is from anywhere. How can I make it ? asked 06 Oct '15, 20:47  DHL edited 06 Oct '15, 23:12  Guy Harris ♦♦ |

hello Christian, I read that page before. And seems that the most feasible way is Switch + Monitor port. But not every switch has monitor port.
Yes, that is right. It is a special function of a switch. The alternative is to use a tap. For more precision you need a tap.
