Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Is there a way to easily go to the next packet that satisfies a
Hi folks,
I use Wireshark a great deal in my job because I am always looking at
captures when trying to figure out bugs in our code.
I often have captures with a lot of different types of packets and
need to find a particular set of packets of mixed type, eg SMB2
followed by the NFS packets caused by the SMB2 request or SMB2
followed by the Kerberos packets caused etc.
What I would like to be abe to do is to set up a filter string for a
specific type of SMB2 request, say, based on source and dest IP and
maybe type (ie, a CREATE, or whatever) and then go to the first such
packet in the capture and then examine the subsequent packets to see
if they satisfy my criteria. If they don't then I would like to go the
next packet that satisfies my filter string and examine them, and so
on until I find what I am looking for.
I will usually also have filtered already on two types of frames (or a
few types) like SMB2 || NFS.
Currently, the only way I can think to do this is to filter on SMB2,
select the first one I am interested in, unfilter (or refilter),
examine the packets, and if they are not what I am interested in,
refilter on SMB2 and select the next packet, and so on. The workflow
is quite painful.
Is there a simpler way to do this?
If not, could we add a button for Next packet satisfying filter?
