OTA Sniffer Capture in Meraki Cloud

Hi Everyone,

 

Wanted to know if Meraki Cloud can perform OTA captures like catalyst center. Found the following documentation but it is not very clear if OTA Captures can be performed in the cloud dashboard.

Thanks!

@GinaR you can capture packets on the wireless interface of an AP, is that what you mean?

But is the TX capture included in that capture?

The only 100% surefire way to have the full capture is to have a nearby AP on the same channel as both parties that capture both sides.

Unless the TX capture is fully operational without any out of order issues then you would be fine doing it on the AP itself.  I believe that's how the proactive pcap will work too.

TX capture is included in all WiFi6e certified APs, i.e. not the MR45/55.
