The Export As option on the Dashboard > Packet Monitor page allows you to display or save a snapshot of the current buffer in the file format that you select from the drop-down list. Saved files are placed on your local management system (where the management interface is running). Choose from the following formats:

Libpcap - Select Libpcap format if you want to view the data with the Wireshark network protocol analyzer. This is also known as libcap or pcap format. A dialog allows you to open the buffer file with Wireshark, or save it to your local hard drive with the extension .pcap.

Html - Select Html to view the data with a browser. You can use File > Save As to save a copy of the buffer to your hard drive.
