Feature #13382

Updated by Marcos M over 2 years ago

The current packet capture page has limited filter functionality. 

 This is Changes to consider for a complete re-write of the new Packet Capture page. 

 page: 
 Enhancements: 
 * Automatically convert IP subnet input to a valid subnet to avoid the "non-network bits set" error. This allows the input of e.g. @10.0.0.1/24@. 
 * Allow stopping a running capture even with input errors in the form. 
 * Packet capture start time is included in and taken from the file name. This avoid writing an extra file. 
 * Keep previous packet captures on the disk (removed when the Clear button is clicked). 

 New: 
 * Allow matching on multiple attribute/type values, e.g. @tcp or udp@. 
 * Allow setting custom values for all types, e.g. @ether proto 0x88cc@. 
 * Allow filtering for VLAN tags (including QinQ). 
 * Allow filtering on interfaces that are not assigned (e.g. for VLAN parent interfaces). 

 Optional (I'm leaving these for a futre MR): Optional: 
 * Implement a live preview like nmap or package manager. 
 * Run multiple packet captures at the same time.
