Regardless of the scope of any engagement, I take 5 minutes to capture some hdp packets while performing a simple ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew command. In many cases, I just file the trace files and keep them for future reference. In about 30% of the cases, I find stuff to clean up or evidence that explains or contributes to the issue at hand.
