Abstract

See full text

A system for synchronizing data packet collection and transmission on multiple segments of a local area network ('LAN') or a wide area network ('WAN') using a common clock to generate time stamps placed on the data packets by all peripheral network devices. The common clock is located on a network analyzer device which acts as the 'master' to other 'slave' peripheral network devices which are driven by the common clock and coupled to the master device in a master-slave configuration. The system also synchronizes the initialization of data packet transmission and/or collection on multiple peripheral network devices by using a common industry standard architecture ('ISA') address for all devices involved in the data transmission and/or collection.
