Is there someone here who has tried using tcpdump or dumpcap in
capturing packets on a GigE interface, we tried to run it but the system
freezes.
If the entire *system* freezes, it's probably a Solaris bug. You might
want to ask Sun about it.
Also, try using snoop to capture the traffic; if that also freezes, at
least the Sun people won't be able to blame it on third-party software.
:-) If it doesn't freeze, Wireshark can read the capture file (to get
something Wireshark can read, use the "-o" flag so that the capture is
saved in binary format).
