    Network Protocol Analyzer WireShark

    Introduction

    WireShark is a Network Protocol Analyzer tool. It captures packets and analyses and displays them in a human-readable format.

    It supports many platforms like Unix, Linux, and Windows. On the Windows platform, the installer bundles with WinPcap. WinPcap is the Windows version of the libpcap library; it includes a driver to support capturing packets. WireShark uses this library to capture live network data on Windows.
