Execute comprehensive network traffic analysis using Wireshark to capture, filter, and examine network packets for security investigations, performance optimization, and troubleshooting. This skill enables systematic analysis of network protocols, detection of anomalies, and reconstruction of network conversations from PCAP files. Wireshark installed (Windows, macOS, or Linux) Network interface with capture permissions PCAP/PCAPNG files for offline analysis Administrator/root privileges for live capture Understanding of network protocols (TCP, UDP, HTTP, DNS) Familiarity with IP addressing and ports Knowledge of OSI model layers Understanding of common attack patterns Network troubleshooting and connectivity issues Security incident investigation Malware traffic analysis Performance monitoring and optimization Protocol learning and education Filtered packet captures for specific traffic Reconstructed communication streams Traffic statistics and visualizations Evidence documentation for incidents Begin capturing packets on network interface: | Action | Shortcut | Description | |--------|----------|-------------| | Start/Stop Capture | Ctrl+E | Toggle capture on/off | | Restart Captu
