Guide on Updating "LE-8500X / LE-8600X series" (Version 1.14)
LINEEYE Co., Ltd. released a new firmware (V1.14) for the line monitors LE-8500X/LE-8600X series. If you have been using the ex-version, please update it to the latest version.
Update information
- Added the slice capture function (LE-8600X/LE-8600XR)
The slice capture function captures only the first 60 bytes of an Ethernet frame, reducing capture loss during high traffic periods and saving on capture buffer and external storage usage. Even when used on a line that carries data containing confidential information, most of the payload is not recorded, preventing the leakage of confidential data.
