An application owner claims an LTM device is delaying delivery of an HTTP application. The LTM device has two VLANs, an internal and an external. The application servers reside on the internal VLAN. The virtual server and clients reside on the external VLAN.
With appropriate filters applied, which solution is most efficient for obtaining packet captures in order to investigate the claim of delayed delivery?
To investigate the claim of delayed delivery for an HTTP application, the most efficient approach for obtaining packet captures would be to capture packets on the external interface. This is because the virtual server and clients reside on the external VLAN, which would allow you to see the traffic entering and leaving the LTM device to and from the clients. Capturing on this interface would help identify any delays in packet delivery that could be affecting the application's performance.
