Hello,
I have several datacenters that all use Nexus core switches. I have long wanted to get proper packet capture appliances for our datacenters, but ever year it is shaved off the budget. Since Nexus does not have a built in packet capture feature the way Catalyst does, I was wondering what solutions some of you engineers use.
In leu of a more expensive purpose build packet capture system, I am entertaining the idea of just putting a big cheap server in each datacenter, putting it on a span port and running Wireshark on it.
Anyone make a poor mans packet capture device? Looking for opinions/options.
