Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Live Header Inspection

["Sheahan, John" <John.Sheahan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am new to the list and have used the Wireshark gui alot in the past. I am in need of writing a script to look at some live http headers and was thinking that if I were to use the command line version of wireshark running on a linux server, that I would somehow be able to write some either Perl or Ruby code to look at packets live and make some logical decisions based on the contents of the headers.

 

Is something that anyone has any experience with and can shed some light on?

 

thanks
