Hi,

We have one of the Finisar (seems to be the Shomito people) GigE capture 
and analysis devices.

It will be mainly useful for capturing up to 128MB at GigE speeds without 
(hopefully) dropping packets. The protocol decodes are a little limited, 
though.

Has anyone had any experience in dealing with the captures? They seem to 
be essentially Shomiti format captures with an extra header that points 
to each of the segments in the capture.

Regards
