Firepower CLI: Capture vs. Capture-Traffic

[cpaquet]

Would someone help me understand the difference of: > capture     and > capture-traffic.  When would I use one over the other?  

The only differences I see are:

1. capture focuses on one interface

2. capture-traffic can be much more verbose, and has dozens of options to augment the granularity of information.

Anything else?  Am I missing something?

Thanks.

Cath.

The commands differentiate between a LINA (ASA subsystem) type capture at the ingress or egress interface vs a Snort capture which happens after the packets are passed to the Snort subsystem via the DAQ.

Wow.  Outstanding explanation Marvin.  Could you become the Writer-in-Chief of the Command Reference Guide for Firepower? ;)
