Hi Jehanzeb,

 

thanks for your fast feedback.

 

Yes, we tried the export function, but we need a solution without manual intervention. Wireshark should run permanent 24 hours producing log files. It would be perfect if the files had only the data we need. For smtp this would be per email one line with:

timestamp, sender-email, receiver-email, subject, mail-length (bytes)

 

Is this possible with wireshark/tshark?

 

Regards

Frank

Hi Frank

 Have you tried exporting (under file menu) the capture file with packet details expanded?

 

Regards

Jehanzeb

Hello,

 

is there any way to store permanent decoded packets and not the raw data in capture files?

We would like to export http and smtp headers in a database for accounting and need a “human readable” format.

 

Thanks

Frank
