CoachA packet capture is a record of the frames that crossed a point of a network, each with the time it crossed. A capture appliance is a dedicated device that receives copies of traffic from taps, timestamps each frame against a disciplined clock, and writes the frames to storage at the line rate of its inputs without losing any.
