Hi,
Well a packet coming in has to come out somewhere. If the router passes them
both to the sniffer you'll see it twice (with a different MAC address, of
course, and maybe a different VLAN tag, and a TTL-1, but still.
Thanx,
Jaap

Hi,
I may be dependant how you configured the monitoring port on the core router.
If it captures both ingress and egress packets it start to see double. The
details I leave to the network operator buffs ;) .
Thanx,

As of last week we started to monitor traffic from our internal Terminal
Server to our internal SQL server using wireshark.
Our network is segmented in the following way:
VLAN for servers
Data VLAN for each floor in the building (six in total).
We installed wireshark on a separate workstation plugged into our core
router with a monitoring port configured
Our first capture revealed over 40% of the traffic as “out-of-order”
packets. When we performed a capture from the terminal server there was
no such traffic.
I wondering if this type of behavior is normal for terminal server
communication. I hope someone can shed some light on this matter for
me, it would greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
