Solved: Embedded Packet Capture Feature on IOS

Gary Lefebvre · ‎04-01-2015

Hello, I have (4) 1841 routers and I am using c1841-adventerprisek9-mz.151-4.M7.bin IOS version.

What I would like to do is use the embedded capture feature and what I get at the terminal is:

R4#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R4(config)#monitor ?
event-trace Tracing of system events
session Configure a SPAN session

Capture is not an option. I need help on how the get the full features to work....

Kind regards...

Hello.

The feature is supported on the platform/release.

You need to exit configuration mode to use it.

Hello Vasilli, thank you for providing me the correct answer! I have one more question. Will embedded packet capture work in Layer 3 switches, Cisco 3550 or 3560?

Hello, Gary.

Sorry, I'm not really familiar with LAN roadmap, so cannot help you here.
