Capnomial: Improved Meraki Packet Capture Extension for Chrome
Capnomial is a free Chrome extension developed by Ross Jacobs that enhances the functionality of the Meraki Packet Capture page. This add-on aims to improve the overall user experience by providing additional features and optimizations.
With Capnomial, users can benefit from several key features. Firstly, the extension changes the file name of captured packets based on the network, devices, and interface names, making it easier to organize and identify captures. Additionally, Capnomial alerts users if the capturing device is not online, saving valuable time and ensuring efficient packet capture.
The extension also defaults the capture type to download packet capture, streamlining the capture process. Furthermore, Capnomial refreshes the file name if there are any changes in the selected network, devices, or interfaces, ensuring accurate and up-to-date capture information.
One notable feature of Capnomial is its provision of more relevant capture filter documentation than the default option. This allows users to easily access and understand the necessary information for capturing specific types of packets.
While Capnomial currently does not have a configuration options page, it offers a Support tab for users to seek assistance, ask questions, and report any issues they may encounter.
Overall, Capnomial is a valuable Chrome extension for users of the Meraki Packet Capture page, providing enhanced functionality and convenience for capturing and analyzing network packets.
