It's a perfect device for remotely-controlled network tests, like packet capture or any telnet/snmp/SIP/perlscript testing scenarios that you like. (...) My Experience is that notebooks are not realy useful for packet sniffing...as more an more Gibabit is common and laptops are no a recommended option to measure data transmission. Especialy when capture filters will be used... Also the available disc space is very limited... I prefer older server infrastructure, that is able to run captures from several points with 2-4 or more NIC's in a ringbuffer configuration...
