The results will now only show HTTP (tcp port 80) traffic. The easiest filter is to type http into the filter bar. As seen here, you can filter on MAC address, IP address, Subnet or protocol. A primary benefit of the filters is to remove the noise (traffic you don't want to see). You enter these expressions into the filter bar (or on the command line if using tshark). The filters are easy to read and self-explanatory. When you have captured an HTTP session, stop the capture and try playing with a few basic filters and the Analyze | Follow | HTTP Stream options. This allows the network card to enter promiscuous mode.Īfter running an initial capture you will see the standard layout and the packet details that can be viewed through the interface. Pretty straight forward, you will also be installing a packet capture driver. Head over to the Wireshark Download page, grab the installation executable and run it to install.
