Wireshark Decode As Feature

Wireshark does a great job Identifying, Decoding, Dissecting and presenting packets and their associated packets.

Every so often you may find that Wireshark doesn’t figure out the protocol and leaves you with a bunch of TCP or UDP packets.

In this video I show how to quickly teach Wireshark what the protocol should be. Even if you don’t know the protocol, you might be able to look in the Bytes pane to figure out what it should be.

Enjoy.
