Re: [swinog] swinog Digest, Vol 79, Issue 1: remotely-controlled network tests, like packet capture

I looked up 255E-13DQws specs on Acer web site, and it says 6-cell.

I bought previously a slightly different model at Interdiscount for 

CHF299.-, and it had 6 cells.

I'll have a closer look when I pass by the M-Electronics shop next time.

You are right in the sense that the right tool should be used for the right job 
:)

Of course it's not suitable for high-bandwidth sniffing, although quite useful 
for 
the occasions where you don't have high-volume traffic.
For example, I use one such notebook for an IP-telephony deployment near the 
border controllers. As it's not yet in production, I know exactly how much 
traffic 
I'm going to have.

The benefit is that I easily bring this notebook to the customer location, 
and it doesn't need much (rack)space. Also I don't have to ask the customer to 
provide new PC hardware.

   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...
