Question #: 55
Topic #: 1
During the maintenance window, you must sniff all the traffic going through a specific firewall policy, which is handled by NP6 interfaces. The output of the sniffer trace provides just a few packets. Why is the output of the sniffer trace limited?
Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer
When auto-asic-offload is enabled on a firewall policy, most traffic matching that policy is offloaded to the NP6 hardware processor. As a result, the CPU-based sniffer sees only the initial packets before the session is accelerated, which is why the sniffer output shows only a few packets.
