<para>The <application>Wireshark</application> package contains a network
|
|
protocol analyzer, also known as a <quote>sniffer</quote>. This is useful
|
|
for analyzing data captured <quote>off the wire</quote> from a live network
|
|
connection, or data read from a capture file.
|
|
<application>Wireshark</application> provides both a graphical and TTY-mode
|
|
front-end for examining captured network packets from over 500 protocols,
|
|
as well as the capability to read capture files from many other popular
|
|
network analyzers.</para>

reference the configuration section of the

<para>If you want to look at packets, make sure you don't filter

them out with <xref linkend="iptables"/>. If you want to exclude

certain classes of packets, it is more efficient to do it with
