Wireshark has a rich feature set which includes 1) deep inspection of hundreds of protocols, with more being added all the time, 2) live capture and offline analysis, 3) standard three-pane packet browser, 4) captured network data can be browsed via a GUI, or via the TTY-mode TShark utility, 5) the most powerful display filters in the industry, 6) rich VoIP analysis, 7) read/write many different capture file formats: tcpdump (libpcap), Catapult DCT2000, Cisco Secure IDS iplog, Microsoft Network Monitor, Network General Sniffer® (compressed and uncompressed), Sniffer® Pro, and NetXray®, Network Instruments Observer, Novell LANalyzer, RADCOM WAN/LAN Analyzer, Shomiti/Finisar Surveyor, Tektronix K12xx, Visual Networks Visual UpTime, WildPackets EtherPeek/TokenPeek/AiroPeek, and many others, 8) capture files compressed with gzip can be decompressed on the fly, 9) live data can be read from Ethernet, IEEE 802.11, PPP/HDLC, ATM, Bluetooth, USB, Token Ring, Frame Relay, FDDI, and others, 10) decryption support for many protocols, including IPsec, ISAKMP, Kerberos, SNMPv3, SSL/TLS, WEP, and WPA/WPA2, 11) coloring rules can be applied to the packet list for quick, intuitive analysis, 12) output can be exported to XML, PostScript®, CSV, or plain text. </longdescription> <use> <flag name="androiddump">Install androiddump, an extcap interface to capture from Android devices</flag> <flag name="bcg729">Use <pkg>media-libs/bcg729</pkg> for G.729 codec support in RTP Player</flag> <flag name="capinfos">Install capinfos, to print information about capture files</flag> <flag name="captype">Install captype, to print the file types of capture files</flag> <flag name="ciscodump">Install ciscodump, extcap interface to capture from a remote Cisco router</flag> <flag name="dftest">Install dftest, to display filter byte-code, for debugging dfilter routines</flag> <flag name="dpauxmon">Install dpauxmon, an external capture interface (extcap) that captures DisplayPort AUX channel data from linux kernel drivers</flag> <flag name="dumpcap">Install dumpcap, to dump network traffic from inside wireshark</flag> <flag name="editcap">Install editcap, to edit and/or translate the format of capture files</flag> <flag name="http3">Install <pkg>net-libs/nghttp3</pkg> for enhanced HTTP3 analysis</flag> <flag name="ilbc">Build with iLBC support in RTP Player using <pkg>media-libs/libilbc</pkg></flag> <flag name="maxminddb">Use <pkg>dev-libs/libmaxminddb</pkg> for IP address geolocation</flag> <flag name="mergecap">Install mergecap, to merge two or more capture files into one</flag> <flag name="minizip">Build with zip file compression support</flag> <flag name="netlink">Use <pkg>dev-libs/libnl</pkg></flag> <flag name="pcap">Use <pkg>net-libs/libpcap</pkg> for network packet capturing (build dumpcap, rawshark)</flag> <flag name="pkcs11">Add support for PKCS in <pkg>net-libs/gnutls</pkg></flag> <flag name="plugins">Install plugins</flag> <flag name="randpkt">Install randpkt, a utility for creating pcap trace files full of random packets</flag> <flag name="randpktdump">Install randpktdump, an extcap interface to provide access to the random packet generator (randpkt)</flag> <flag name="reordercap">Install reordercap, to reorder input file by timestamp into output file</flag> <flag name="sbc">Use <pkg>media-libs/sbc</pkg> for playing back SBC encoded packets</flag> <flag name="sdjournal">Install sdjournal, an extcap that captures systemd journal entries</flag> <flag name="sharkd">Install sharkd, the daemon variant of wireshark</flag> <flag name="smi">Use <pkg>net-libs/libsmi</pkg> to resolve numeric OIDs into human readable format</flag> <flag name="spandsp">Use <pkg>media-libs/spandsp</pkg> for for G.722 and G.726 codec support in the RTP Player</flag> <flag name="sshdump">Install sshdump, an extcap interface to capture from a remote host through SSH</flag> <flag name="text2pcap">Install text2pcap, to generate a capture file from an ASCII hexdump of packets</flag> <flag name="tshark">Install tshark, to dump and analyzer network traffic from the command line</flag> <flag name="udpdump">Install udpdump, to get packets exported from a source (like a network device or a GSMTAP producer) that are dumped to a pcap file</flag> <flag name="wifi">Install wifidump, to dump and analyse 802.11 traffic</flag> <flag name="xxhash">Enable <pkg>dev-libs/xxhash</pkg> support for hashing</flag> </use> <upstream> <changelog>https://www.wireshark.org/news/</changelog> <remote-id type="github">wireshark/wireshark</remote-id> <remote-id type="gitlab">wireshark/wireshark</remote-id> <remote-id type="cpe">cpe:/a:wireshark:wireshark</remote-id> </upstream> </pkgmetadata>
