Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Sniffing communication between virtual machines

["Beno, Tal" <Tal_Beno@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

I need to record traffic between two middleware software (e.g. app server and a DB) which are deployed on two different virtual machines. The thing is that they may be physically deployed sometime on the same physical machine.

 

Would a SPAN port listener on the Switch be able to capture the traffic between them in that kind of a scenario/deployment? If not – then I would be grateful to learn now people are tapping into virtual environments in that regard.

 

Thank you in advance,

Tal
