Hi Michael, there can be many reasons you aren’t seeing
what you expect. In order of importance:
First: wireshark will only capture what it sees on the wire.
Make sure your capturing on a hub, or mirrored/span/monitor port on the switch.
Second: Be sure to check the “capture in promiscuous mode”
otherwise it will drop everything except what’s to/from your station.
Third: What capture filter string are you using? If you don’t
filter at all do you get the intended traffic?

Subject: [Wireshark-users] Capture Filter
I
am pretty sure that I have my capture filter set right - but obviously not. I
want to capture all traffic to a particular IP address. However, it is only
capturing traffic (such as an ICMP request) between my machine and that
IP. How can I open this up to all source/dst traffic
