if you could go to and connect to that switch and also
gain
admin control of the switch to adjust its monitor port to
where you plug in, you'd be all set. i do that here.
most switches offer the monitor port option or perhaps designate a
hardcoded monitor port.
if that isn't possible, you could identify the switch port the servers
are plugged into, drop a hub from the switch
then plugin both servers and your laptop to that hub, then again all
the traffic is visible on the hub.
just some thoughts...

What about if the other two
clients which I am trying to capture traffic for they connect to a
different switch at another site than the site from where my laptop is
connected to.
Thanks,
first let me say , i am only getting started with
wireshark.
i am not familiar with the remote server capture.
what i cn say is that wireshark can capture all it can see. permit me
to illustrate by example.
my workstation is where i run wireshark from is on a switch with 30-40
other clients. on
the lan segment from the switch to me, to my eth0 interface normally
sees only my local traffic.
but lets say i want to monitor one(or more) of the other switch clients.
i can go to my switch and assign my port as the monitor port.
that means that all other switch client traffic is also copied to my
monitor port.
if i can see it, i can capture it.
now i can fire up wireshark and see what transpires to/from any of the
other switch clients.
naturally your topology will differ, but i just wanted to point out it
is possible to
capture remote client traffic if you take the right approach.
make sense?

Thanks,
what do you mean by remotely? if you are on a
switch for example, your interface sees only your traffic.

I have a problem. I installed wire shark client in my lattop
successfully. After doing so, I was able to capture data locally on my
machine, but when I tried to capture remotely, I was not able to do so.
Please assist.
