Opened: Sep 24, 2021 Severity: 4-Minor
Unable to collect a tcpdump specifying the interface as a network trunk, when run from tmsh. This is particularly likely to occur for users who are authenticated via a remote authentication mechanism (i.e. LDAP or TACACS).
Capturing network traffic from a network trunk does not work.
-- User with role Administrator or Resource Administrator logs in with a default shell of 'tmsh' -- User tries to collect a tcpdump specifying a network trunk as the interface.
1. Launch bash ("run util bash") and unset the TMOS_PATH variable prior to invoking tcpdump, by doing one of the following: - unset TMOS_PATH; tcpdump ... - env -u TMOS_PATH tcpdump ... Note: this workaround will only work for users with the 'Administrator' role 2. Specify an interface in the trunk instead of the trunk itself 3. Capture on a VLAN.
