Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] Question about endpoints statistics

Hi Vijay

 

Thanks for you reply.

 

I’m aware of that Wireshark can be run on Linux via X, but I don’t have the opportunity to install that on that server. That’s why I asked whether tshark has the possibility to show the endpoints statistics. Sorry if I was unclear.

 

Regards,

Martin

Hi Martin,

 

    I am not sure why you think GUI is lost when running on Linux.  There is an equivalent 'wireshark' command also available on Linux which is basically a X-client.  So you will need X-Server running on your desktop (Cygwin provides one for free!).  Not sure though whether the Linux version of the GUI has the specific feature implemented...

 

    Regards,

 

Vijay

Hi

I've tried the Windows version of Wireshark and the endpoints list
statistics
(http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChStatEndpoints.html#ChStat
EndpointDefinition), which works great.

Because I needed to process some huge traces, I had to install Wireshark on
a terminal based Linux computer which is faster. This works fine, but since
I've now lost the GUI I can't use the endpoints windows described in the URL
mentioned earlier.

Tshark offers statistics via the -z switch, but the closest I've gotten to
the endpoint statistics is the IP conversation statistics (-z conv,ip -q).

So my question is if it's possible to generate endpoints list statistics
with tshark (or some of the other included programs) in terminal mode?

Thanks!
