Description

It would be handy if all interfaces were available as targets for packet capture even without being assigned.

Actions #1

Updated by Chris Buechler over 13 years ago

  • Subject changed from Add unassigned OpenVPN interfaces to Packet Capture drop-down to Add all interfaces to Packet Capture drop-down
  • Category changed from OpenVPN to Web Interface

Changed to all interfaces, there are a number of scenarios in addition to OpenVPN where that capability would be helpful, I frequently have to go tcpdump via SSH for that reason.

Actions #2

Updated by Jim Pingle over 13 years ago

Even better. :-)

Actions #3

Updated by Pierre POMES over 13 years ago

Do you mean all interfaces from returned by ifconfig ?

Actions #4

Updated by Jim Pingle over 13 years ago

Anything valid for tcpdump. So perhaps not lo0, carp, or other interfaces from which a packet capture would not work or would not yeild anything meaningful.

Actions #5

Updated by Chris Buechler over 13 years ago

Yeah I think vip* (CARP) and lo0 would be the only two things to exclude, otherwise everything ifconfig returns. I can't think of anything else where tcpdump isn't valid.

this has been addressed since then, I can't think of any common scenario that isn't covered.
