Skorpion diagnostic switches assist in troubleshooting Ethernet networks by allowing a network sniffer such as Wireshark to attach to an unused port on the switch and observe all traffic on the network

Skorpion diagnostic switches assist in troubleshooting Ethernet networks by allowing a network sniffer such as Wireshark to attach to an unused port on the switch and observe all traffic on the network. The switches retain all the features of an unmanaged switch but perform like a repeating hub in which all received messages are flooded to all other ports, allowing debugging with plug-and-play operation and without requiring managed switches.
