    tcpdump -ni0.0 -s0 -w host -ni0.0 = captures on all interfaces of F5 -s0 = capture each packet completely -w = saves the capture to a file

    Hello,

     

    If you get syntax error for "tcpdump" maybe you don`t have the right User access. For exaple if your user is with guest role you will not be able to run tcpdump.
