Network Traffic Profile

Generating the network traffic profile can help debug many issues

FMADIO Capture System has built in utility "capinfos2" which can provide fast and compact summary information about a PCAP.,

For network profile information please run as follows

sudo stream_cat <insert capture name> | capinfos2 -v --histo-size

This will generate a packet size histogram such as the following

With a more compact histogram version shown below. Note the first graph is the packet size histogram of packets on the wire, the second is size based on the packets captured. In this case packets have been sliced @ 128B thus the histogram is quite short

Finally at the end there is a number list, which can be sent to FMADIO Support so we can replicate your network traffic profile locally with our synthetic packet generator.
