hi,

this topic seems being at least semi-operational to me :slight_smile:

i’d like to make an idea of which sniffers and (the more important part) decoders are included in the arsenal of engineering tools used by network engineers at various isp sizes

practical experience would be the most valuable information

please feel free to reply privately if you feel this does not fit the list topics

thanks much
