On wireless networks, it is possible to use the Aircrack wireless security tools to capture IEEE 802.11 frames and read the resulting dump files with Wireshark. As of Wireshark 0.99.7, Wireshark and TShark run dumpcap to perform traffic capture. Platforms that require special privileges to capture traffic need only dumpcap run with those ...

A capture file saved in the format that libpcap, WinPcap, and Npcap use can be read by applications that understand that format, such as tcpdump, Wireshark, CA NetMaster, or Microsoft Network Monitor 3.x. The file format is described by Internet-Draft draft-ietf-opsawg-pcap; [5] the current editors' version of the draft is also available. [6]
However, the concept behind PCAP-over-IP was mentioned already in 2008 as part of a feature request for Wireshark. [3] The need for this feature was motivated as follows: "This feature is useful when the capture is generated on a machine which does not have much storage (e.g. embedded system).
tcpdump is a data-network packet analyzer computer program that runs under a command line interface.It allows the user to display TCP/IP and other packets being transmitted or received over a network to which the computer is attached. [3]
As promiscuous mode can be used in a malicious way to capture private data in transit on a network, computer security professionals might be interested in detecting network devices that are in promiscuous mode.
Deep packet inspection (DPI) is a type of data processing that inspects in detail the data being sent over a computer network, and may take actions such as alerting, blocking, re-routing, or logging it accordingly.
Since the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) does not perform congestion control on control packets (pure ACKs, SYN, FIN segments), control packets are usually not marked as ECN-capable. A 2009 proposal [7] suggests marking SYN-ACK packets as ECN-capable. This improvement, known as ECN+, has been shown to provide dramatic improvements to ...
