Hi,
 
You can use interval "0" to calculate statistics on the whole file with no intervals.
 
Cheers,

hi,
 
and another one that I forgot
 
in the below command
 
D:\temp>tshark -r trace000.pcap -q -z io,stat,600,megaco.command=="Add",megaco.command=="Subtract"

===================================================================
IO Statistics
Interval: 600.000 secs
Column #0: megaco.command==Add
Column #1: megaco.command==Subtract
                |   Column #0    |   Column #1
Time            |frames|  bytes  |frames|  bytes
000.000-600.000   67587  43523248  67931  13153738
===================================================================

as far as I can understand,, the yellow highlighted part (600) is the interval in seconds for which tshark should perform the calculations
 
Since I want the complete file,,, I just use a very large number
Is there a way to omit this interval
or tell tshark to simply parse the entire packet?
 
I have not been able to find such an option in help ... that's why I'm asking ...
 
thanks again
Manolis

hi
 
thanks,, it worked beautifully also with combinations
 
another quicky
in case you happen to have an opinion
 
I have a huge amount of files of 80MB each and I wish to create total statistics about add/modify/... etc, etc,
should I merge all files in one large (~5GB) file and then run tshark against it or should I create a batch script store the results in .csv and use Excel?

Hi Manolis

Do you use the , as decimal symbol?
You have to use the . as decimal symbol.

Please check
Settings -> Control Pannel -> Regional And Language Options
