Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Terminal Server traffic

As of last week we started to monitor traffic from our internal Terminal Server to our internal SQL server using wireshark.

 

Our network is segmented in the following way:

VLAN for servers

Data VLAN for each floor in the building (six in total).

We installed wireshark on a separate workstation plugged into our core router with a monitoring port configured

 

Our first capture revealed over 40% of the traffic as “out-of-order” packets.  When we performed a capture from the terminal server there was no such traffic. 

I wondering if this type of behavior is normal for terminal server communication.  I hope someone can shed some light on this matter for me, it would greatly appreciated.

 


Thanks!
