Not sure about the 64-Bit thing, isn't ''tcpdump'' good for that too?

I think I remember that ''fw monitor'' gives more detailed Layer 2 info, which might be why it's better than ''tcpdump'' for certain tasks.

The 64-bit support for fw monitor is an interesting point. That could be a practical consideration, especially if you're working with more modern systems. I'll make sure to keep that in mind.

I've used both of these tools before, and I think the main advantage of fw monitor is that it can provide more context around the network activity, like the inspection points. That could be really helpful for troubleshooting.

Okay, let me see. I believe fw monitor gives you more visibility into the lower-level network traffic, while tcpdump is focused on the higher-level protocols. That could be a useful distinction to highlight.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know tcpdump is a network packet capture tool, but I'm not too familiar with fw monitor. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. I think the key is understanding the differences between the two tools and what kind of information they provide.
