24. Traffic Sniffing and Analysis

24.4 Display Filters and Following a Stream

Wireshark che display filters (capture filters peksha vegle) je disat aahe tyatun nemka packet shodhtat.

Filter Shows
ip.​addr == 192.​168.​56.​20 Any packet to or from that IP
tcp.port == 80 HTTP traffic
http Only HTTP packets
http.​request.​method == "POST" Form submissions (logins!)
dns DNS queries and answers
tcp.​flags.​syn == 1 && tcp.​flags.​ack == 0 Connection starts (spot a port scan)
frame contains "password" Any packet with that word

Follow TCP Stream: right-click a packet, Follow, TCP Stream, and Wireshark reassembles the whole conversation into readable text – the entire HTTP request and response in one window.

Ravindra Bagale's Tip

Capture filter ani display filter vegle aahet: capture filter (tcpdump-style, port 80) capture-adhi lavla jato ani kami packets gheto; display filter (http, ip.addr==) capture-nantar disnare galto. Interview madhe ha farak vichartat. Suruvatila sagla capture kara, mag display filter ne shodha.

Lab

In Wireshark, apply http.request.method == "POST", then log in to DVWA (HTTP) from Firefox. Find the login POST, right-click, Follow TCP Stream, and read the request. You will see the username and password in plain text – proof for the next section.
