Capture the network traffic
With PiRogue, it’s easy to capture the network traffic of all devices at once or the network traffic of a single device.
Capture the whole network traffic
Simply use tcpdump and specify the name of the isolated interface:
tcpdump -i [isolated interface] -w [PCAP file]In the command above, replace
[isolated interface]with the name of the isolated interface[PCAP file]with the name of the file that will contain the network traffic
Press Ctrl+C to stop the capture.
Capture the network traffic of a single device
Use tcpdump, specify the name of the isolated interface and the IP address of the device:
tcpdump -i [isolated interface] host [device IP address] -w [PCAP file]In the command above, replace:
[isolated interface]with the name of the isolated interface[device IP address]with the IP address of the device whose traffic you want to capture[PCAP file]with the name of the file that will contain the network traffic
Press Ctrl+C to stop the capture.
ℹ️ How to capture the network traffic of a device
In this example, the name of the isolated network interface is wg0, 10.8.0.2 is the IP address of the device and the network traffic will be saved in the file /tmp/traffic.pcap.
