Free Wireshark training – Packet capture 101
Posted in NetFlow, NetFlow Analyzer, Network Traffic Analysis, Network Traffic Monitor, Scrutinizer on July 11th, 2009 by jimmydI use Wireshark all the time. In general, I just scratch the surface by using it to test whether or not NetFlow is coming into Scrutinizer.
Golden Rule: Using an external third-party application, like Wireshark, to test connectivity helps establish credibility in any situation.
Most people whom I speak with have a general understanding of what a packet capture is. The problem is, they don’t know how to gather or use the data once they have obtained it. So I thought I would do a little homework and find some resources that provide some basic Wireshark training for the busy IT professional.
