Help - how to adjust capture buffer size of Ethereal?

Oct 01, 2004 2 Replies

Hi,



We don't want to use Ethereal to capture millions of lines. Is there a way to limit the capturing buffer size of Ethereal so we can capture certain lines, say 2000?



Thanks,


T.


Use the -c option of tethereal ... or if you use thw windoze version: click on "Capture" then "Start" and chose your limit. Either number of packets, megabytes or minutes.
