Need a hub for packet sniffing
Asif Dasl
I want to buy a network hub for my toolbox to 'hub out' while using Wireshark should the need arise. Does anybody know a model I can chase down on eBay? I'm looking for something small, definitely not rack mounted. Most of what I'm finding is small brand new switches or switches incorrectly labelled as hubs. Any suggestions?

If the switch I'm on doesn't support SPAN or I don't have access to it then I use a
Catalyst 2940
. It is fairly small and supports SPAN. You'll have to configure it so that it doesn't mess up the rest of your network though.

I was looking at 2960's but it was more than I was willing to part with. I didn't know about the 2940 but it's the right price. Thanks tiersten!
