You can choose one from the two actions taken when the capture buffer is full; wrapping the buffer and pausing capture. Wrapping buffer will overwrite new data on the oldest one in the buffer. Pausing capture will stop capturing automatically.

Procedure

1. Open [Options] dialog box.
2. Click [Capture] item in the tree view in the left of the dialog box.
3. Select a target interface from the [Interface] list.
4. Choose either [Wrap buffer] or [Pause capture].

Note

• In realtime decode mode, the packets will be dropped when the capture buffer is full. realtime decode view will highlight in orange the row after the packet drop occurred.
