trace on atm card

[Eric Guerizec]

hello,
DBA wants to trace packets for a special sybase port
but the machine is on atm network.
How can i trace packets on a atm card?
Can I use tcpdump to do it? How?
Thanks.

I usually go with the following:

nettl -tn 0x30800000 -e all -size 1024 -tracemax 99999 -f /tmp/raw0

To turn off:

nettl -tf -e all

Eric,

Oops, I guess I should mention how I would format as well:

netfmt -Nlnf raw0.TRC0 > fmt0

Hope that helps you ... greg

Eric,

Sorry, in that first reply the "all"
entry should actually be replaced with
"atm".

nettl -tn 0x30800000 -e atm -size 1024 -tm 99999 -f /tmp/raw0
