Wireshark is a network traffic analyzer, or "sniffer", for Unix and
|
||
|
|
Unix-like operating systems. It uses GTK+, a graphical user interface
|
||
|
|
library, and libpcap, a packet capture and filtering library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Wireshark distribution also comes with TShark, which is a
|
||
|
|
line-oriented sniffer (similar to Sun's snoop, or tcpdump) that uses the
|
||
|
|
same dissection, capture-file reading and writing, and packet filtering
|
||
|
|
code as Wireshark, and with editcap, which is a program to read capture
|
||
|
|
files and write the packets from that capture file, possibly in a
|
||
|
|
different capture file format, and with some packets possibly removed
|
||
|
|
from the capture.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the old stable release (v1.x).
