Use this procedure to enable the packet sniffing service.
You must apply a capture list using the capture filter-group command in order for the capture list to be active. If you do not use the capture filter-group command, the packet sniffing service captures all packets.
Note:
The capture start command resets the buffer before starting the sniffer.
Once you have defined and applied the packet capture lists, use the capture start command in general context to instruct the packet sniffing service to start capturing packets.
