Wireshark and Scapy Network Analyst
!Currently looking at how to get the scapy module added for processing the pcap data sorry for the inconvenience
The Wireshark and Scapy Network Analyst is a powerful tool that allows you to decode and analyze network packets in real-time. It enables you to get a deep understanding of your network traffic, including packets that are currently being processed by Scapy. While it may have some minor issues with its programming syntax at the moment, it's a great tool for software developers and network administrators to help them identify and debug any problems in their network performance.

Wireshark and Scapy Network Analyst
Overview
Wireshark and Scapy are two powerful network analysis tools that can be used to capture, analyze and interpret network traffic. In this guide, we will explore how to use these tools together to help with your analysis.
Example prompts
-
Prompt 1: "Please show me a list of protocols currently in use on my network."
-
Prompt 2: "Can you show me the most common types of network traffic on my network in the last hour?"
-
Prompt 3: "I'm experiencing slow connectivity, can you help me analyze the network traffic and find out why?"
-
Prompt 4: "Please show me the data of the last 1000 packets captured by Wireshark".
-
Prompt 5: "Can you help me analyze the network capture for a specific IP address?"
Features and commands
Wireshark and Scapy provide a wide range of features and commands for network analysis, including:
- Capture: Use Wireshark to capture network traffic on your network.
- Analyze: Use Scapy to analyze the captured data and extract relevant information such as the protocol being used, the source and destination IP addresses and ports, etc.
- Filter: Use Wireshark's filtering capabilities to find specific sets of data within the captured packet dump.
- Decoding: Use Scapy to decode captured packets and extract information such as the payload data.
Example usage:
To use Wireshark and Scapy together, follow these steps:
- Open Wireshark and start a capture.
- Once the capture is complete, open Scapy and import the captured data.
- Use Scapy to analyze and filter the data, as well as decode any packets that may need decoding.
- As needed, provide the output to the user in a form that is easy to understand.
Note: This is just an example and in a real-world scenario, the process will be more complex and depend on the specific project.
