From earlier posts i found that you can monitor a router by configuring it or through a switch using port monitoring. In port monitoring a switch, how can i configure wireshark to monitor a specific port?

The correct question is not "how can I configure Wireshark to monitor a specific port?", it's "how can I configure the switch to allow a network analyzer, such as Wireshark, to monitor a specific port?"

Given that, see
