W7 Ult. Node NIC activity after power off not captured by wireshark
I am trying to investigate NIC activity after shutdown and turning off all power.
I know this sounds strange, but I completely remove the power from the node and still there is network activity being generated!
I tried to examine the activity with Wireshark, but it seems that it cannot 'see' this traffic although I have no filter set and should see all data on the wire.
The activity is not a link beat indication as I see the packet count rise on my router.
I turned off WOL (wake on LAN) function in BIOS from the very beginning (before setting up the node).
I would appreciate any feedback from others who can help. I will be checking this with other (and older) protocol analyzers to see if I get some answers. I will post my findings here, when I have something to report.
