Display Filters

Filtering displayed packets:

# Basic Display Filters
# Show only HTTP traffic:
http

# Show specific IP address:
ip.addr == 192.168.1.100

# Show traffic between two hosts:
ip.addr == 192.168.1.100 and ip.addr == 192.168.1.200

# Show specific port:
tcp.port == 80

# Show protocol:
dns
smtp
ftp

# Advanced Display Filters
# HTTP GET requests:
http.request.method == "GET"

# HTTP responses with specific status:
http.response.code == 404

# TCP SYN packets:
tcp.flags.syn == 1

# Large packets:
frame.len > 1000

# Packets containing specific string:
frame contains "password"

# Time-based filters:
frame.time >= "2023-01-01 00:00:00"

# Logical Operators
# AND operator:
tcp and port 80

# OR operator:
tcp or udp

# NOT operator:
not icmp

# Parentheses for grouping:
(tcp and port 80) or (udp and port 53)

# Filter Expressions
# Source/destination specific:
ip.src == 192.168.1.100
ip.dst == 192.168.1.200

# Protocol-specific fields:
tcp.seq == 0
udp.length > 100
dns.qry.name contains "example.com"

# String matching:
http.host contains "google"
http.user_agent contains "Mozilla"

Protocol Analysis

Analyzing specific protocols:

# HTTP Analysis
# Filter: http
# Look for:
# - Request methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
# - Response codes (200, 404, 500)
# - Headers and cookies
# - Request/response bodies

# DNS Analysis
# Filter: dns
# Examine:
# - Query types (A, AAAA, MX, TXT)
# - Response codes
# - Authoritative answers
# - DNS tunneling indicators

# TCP Analysis
# Filter: tcp
# Analyze:
# - Three-way handshake (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK)
# - Connection termination (FIN, RST)
# - Sequence and acknowledgment numbers
# - Window sizes and scaling

# SSL/TLS Analysis
# Filter: ssl or tls
# Review:
# - Handshake process
# - Certificate information
# - Cipher suites
# - Protocol versions

# SMTP Analysis
# Filter: smtp
# Check:
# - Email headers
# - Authentication methods
# - Message content
# - Relay information

# Expert Information
# Analyze > Expert Information
# Automatic analysis of potential problems
# Categories: Chat, Note, Warn, Error

# Response Time Analysis
# Statistics > Service Response Time
# Measures response times for various protocols
# Useful for performance analysis

Advanced Filtering

Complex filtering techniques:

# Regular Expressions
# Use matches operator for regex:
http.host matches ".*\.example\.com"
dns.qry.name matches ".*\.evil\.com"

# Field Existence
# Check if field exists:
http.authorization
tcp.options.mss

# Arithmetic Operations
# Compare calculated values:
tcp.window_size_value < 1000
frame.time_delta > 1.0

# Bit Operations
# Check specific bits:
tcp.flags & 0x02  # SYN flag
ip.flags.df == 1  # Don't Fragment

# Function Filters
# Use built-in functions:
upper(http.host) contains "EXAMPLE"
len(http.request.uri) > 100

# Slice Operators
# Extract specific bytes:
eth.src[0:3] == 00:50:56  # OUI check
ip.addr[0:2] == 192.168   # Network check

# Multiple Value Matching
# Match any of several values:
tcp.port in \\\\{80 443 8080 8443\\\\}
ip.addr in \\\\{192.168.1.0/24\\\\}

# Time-based Filtering
# Relative time filters:
frame.time_relative > 10.0
frame.time_delta > 0.1

# Advanced Protocol Filters
# HTTP-specific:
http.request.method in \\\\{"GET" "POST"\\\\}
http.response.code >= 400
http.content_type contains "application/json"

# DNS-specific:
dns.flags.response == 1
dns.count.answers > 1
dns.resp.ttl < 300

# TCP-specific:
tcp.analysis.retransmission
tcp.analysis.duplicate_ack
tcp.analysis.zero_window

Packet Manipulation

Working with packet data:

# Export Packet Data
# File > Export Packet Dissections
# Formats: Plain text, CSV, JSON, XML

# Export Objects
# File > Export Objects > HTTP/SMB/TFTP
# Extract files transferred over protocols

# Follow Streams
# Right-click packet > Follow > TCP/UDP/SSL Stream
# View complete conversation
# Save stream content

# Decode As
# Analyze > Decode As
# Force protocol interpretation
# Useful for non-standard ports

# Custom Columns
# Right-click column header > Column Preferences
# Add custom fields as columns
# Examples:
# - Source Port: tcp.srcport
# - Destination Port: tcp.dstport
# - HTTP Method: http.request.method

# Time Display Formats
# View > Time Display Format
# Options:
# - Absolute time
# - Relative to first packet
# - Delta from previous packet
# - UTC time

# Colorization Rules
# View > Coloring Rules
# Highlight packets based on criteria
# Create custom color rules
# Examples:
# - Red for TCP errors
# - Green for HTTP success
# - Blue for DNS queries

SSL/TLS Decryption

Decrypting encrypted traffic:

# Pre-Master Secret Method
# 1. Set SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable
export SSLKEYLOGFILE=/tmp/sslkeys.log

# 2. Start application (browser, curl, etc.)
# 3. Capture traffic with Wireshark
# 4. Configure SSL decryption:
#    Edit > Preferences > Protocols > TLS
#    (Pre)-Master-Secret log filename: /tmp/sslkeys.log

# Private Key Method
# 1. Obtain server private key
# 2. Configure in Wireshark:
#    Edit > Preferences > Protocols > TLS
#    RSA keys list: Add key file
#    Format: IP,Port,Protocol,Key file

# Example RSA key configuration:
# 192.168.1.100,443,http,/path/to/server.key

# Verify Decryption
# Look for "Decrypted TLS" in protocol column
# HTTP traffic should be visible in decrypted sessions

# Common Issues
# - Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) prevents decryption with private key only
# - Need pre-master secrets for PFS connections
# - Ensure correct key format (PEM)
# - Verify IP and port match exactly

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

**Permission Issues:**
```bash
# Add user to wireshark group
sudo usermod -a -G wireshark $USER

# Set capabilities for dumpcap
sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin+eip /usr/bin/dumpcap

# Check current capabilities
getcap /usr/bin/dumpcap

# Alternative: Run as root (not recommended)
sudo wireshark

Interface Issues:

# List available interfaces
tshark -D
ip link show

# Check interface status
ip addr show eth0

# Bring interface up
sudo ip link set eth0 up

# Check for conflicting processes
sudo lsof -i :interface
sudo netstat -tulpn|grep :interface

Performance Issues:

# Increase buffer size
tshark -i eth0 -B 100  # 100MB buffer

# Use ring buffer for continuous capture
tshark -i eth0 -b filesize:100000 -b files:10 -w capture.pcap

# Optimize display filters
# Use specific filters instead of broad ones
# Example: tcp.port == 80 instead of tcp

# Disable name resolution for performance
tshark -i eth0 -n -w capture.pcap

Performance Optimization

Optimizing Wireshark performance:

# Memory Optimization
# Edit > Preferences > Appearance > Layout
# Reduce pane sizes for better performance

# Capture Optimization
# Use capture filters to reduce data
# Capture only necessary protocols
# Use appropriate buffer sizes

# Display Optimization
# Limit packet list size
# Use specific display filters
# Disable unnecessary columns

# File Handling
# Use multiple smaller files instead of one large file
# Compress capture files when storing
# Regular cleanup of old captures

Security Considerations

Operational Security

Data Protection:

Encrypt captured packet files containing sensitive data
Implement secure data retention policies for network captures
Control access to packet capture data and analysis results
Secure transmission and storage of network forensics data
Regular cleanup of temporary capture files

Legal and Ethical Considerations:

Only capture traffic on networks you own or have permission to monitor
Understand legal requirements for network monitoring in your jurisdiction
Implement proper data handling procedures for captured traffic
Respect privacy and confidentiality of network communications
Document monitoring activities for compliance purposes

Network Security

Monitoring Best Practices:

Deploy network monitoring in strategic locations
Implement network segmentation for monitoring infrastructure
Use dedicated monitoring interfaces when possible
Regular security assessments of monitoring systems
Integration with network intrusion detection systems
