I have a cluster of 3 x FG5001D using 4 VDOM. 

we was on version 5.0.9 when we realized that the option "Packet Capture" under any VDOM (Vdom -> System -> Network) was not there.

After this, we proceed to update to the actual version 5.2.8 and the menu option "Packet Capture" does not appear.

 

trying through CLI, the packet capture works well. but the user of packet capture don't have intimacy with CLI, then we need the GUI working.

i checked the user permissions, clear browser caches, other navigator and nothing was effective

 

Any clue of what i have to do?

This has been a bug in a few versions. I'm not sure if/when it was fixed but as a workaround you browse to:

Not sure the answer to any of those questions. I just hit this issue before and found the workaround in another post.
