Abstract
Described herein are systems, methods, and software to capture packets of interest in a virtual switch. In one implementation, a method of capturing packets of interest in a virtual switch includes identifying a request to capture packets associated with first packet attributes. The method further includes, in response to the request, assigning a virtual port for forwarding the packets associated with the first packet attributes, and implementing a forwarding rule in the virtual switch to forward the packets associated with the first packet attributes to at least the virtual port. The method further provides for directing traffic over the virtual switch using the forwarding rule.
