Capturing data with the nRF Sniffer

You can start capturing manually from Wireshark or using a Python script.

The nRF Sniffer for 802.15.4 listens on the specified channel to pick up as many packets as possible from as many devices as possible. The default channel is 11. To listen on a different channel, you can either run nRF Sniffer with custom options (if you are starting the capturing process manually) or set the specific channel when integrating the nRF Sniffer module into your script (if you are running the capture from a script).
