New Wi-Fi Diagnostics Tool In Mac OSX Lion

A new tool currently available to developers has been discovered in Mac OSX Lion.


Option-clicking the wifi menu bar icon brings up the usual extra features, as well as a new one; Wi-Fi Diagnostics.
This launches the new Wi-Fi Diagnostics menu, where users can record and monitor all the goings on of traffic, performance and data speeds running through your networks!
Looks like a very useful little tool, and just another easter egg found inside Lion!

    Wait, can it analyze all network traffic or just the traffic to and from the Mac? I'd really like a way to know what else is going on in my network. I'm just paranoid like that.
