Analyzing network traffic
Hi, ran a sniffer for a few seconds and saw this
Source Dest Protocol INFO
02:01:00:00:00:00 -----> Broadcast 0x886f MS NLB Hearbeat
I'm seeing a lot of this traffic. It is 80% of the traffic. Anyone have any idea what it is?
2. Also, the STP protocol is running on my network and I only have one switch in my lab. Why would this be running? (I did have another switch before, but removed it)
3. I'm also noticing the CDP protocol is running on my switch. It is doing the following:
Source Dest Protocol INFO
00:90:f2:44:ae:01 01:00:0c:cc:cc:cc CDP/VTP Cisco Discovery Protocol
I know what CDP is for, but what is up with that destination MAC address?
