Hi,

I'm new to this sniffing technique, and I would appreciate any help on this problem:

Need to capture traffice on remote subnet, which is connected over a 64K WAN link (using Black Box Mini bridges on both sides of the link).

SAM
 
You would need to have a Distributed Sniffer Agent physically attached to that remote subnet with the Sniffer console software on your desktop. Or you need to be there with a portable Sniffer.

The captured file resides on the Distributed Sniffer agent and you see screen shots on you console.

If you subnets collapse all collapse into a VLAN you could be physically connected to that VLAN or SPAN that VLAN to a the SPAN port that you Sniffer resides on.
