Are we using the best default settings when Wireshark is installed for
the first time on a machine? I always make these changes:
- <uncheck> Ask for unsaved capture files
+1 for that. I push a /usr/local/share/preferences file to many of our
systems mainly for that option.
- <check> Welcome screen and title bar shows version
Makes sense to me.
- Always start in directory (Desktop on Windows, ~/captures on Unix)
- Change the toolbar style to "Icons & Text"
- Add a "Packet Length (Bytes)" column titled "Bytes"
I don't add packet length, but I do add the Expert Info Severity column.
Makes it easier to find warnings, etc.
