StevenD Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I am monitoring a system for intermittent connection issues. The system is configured as: DEVICE 1 <------> Packet Squirrel 1 <------> SWITCH <------> Packet Squirrel 2 <------> DEVICE 2 The cables are 6ft, 1ft, 1ft, and 10ft respectively I occasionally see a packet at PS1 but not at PS2. Thinking it may be the switch, I changed the 100MB switch to a 1GB switch from different manufacturer. This got me wondering if the packet squirrels were recording all traffic. There is about 3600 packets per minute flowing between the 2 devices, with the total traffic being about 1.68MB/minute, or 28KB/sec. The largest packet is 1514 bytes. I then swapped the packet squirrels and saw packet loss on PS2, kinda ruling out the packet squirrels. This led to a question of the thumb drives, trying to eliminate possibilities. I am using SanDisk Ultra USB 3.0 64GB thumb drives. Has anyone had issues with certain thumb drives and the packet squirrels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
