Mastering Microsoft's CLI Packet Capture: Pktmon.exe for IT Pros

Pktmon.exe is a powerful packet capture tool that works in PowerShell or CMD.  Its strength is the ability to analyze complex network stacks, including virtualization, containers, and SDN.   Simple to use and has a powerful real-time display of traffic throughout the network stack.   Want to discover problems resulting in dropped packets, Packet Monitor can focus on just dropped packets and why they were dropped.   Drill down into your VPN circuits and see problems in real-time.   Windows Admin Center has an extension that brings some of the features of Packet Monitor into the GUI console.  Azure Portal also allows the use of Packet Monitor for quick packet capture.  Conversion tools allow your log files to be viewed in a text editor or Wireshark.
