Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Fw: Capture analysis

[Maureen McDonald <maureenlynne@xxxxxxxxx>]

Good question, I could use such a resource as well.  I am a real beginner to protocol analysis so line by line explanations would be very nice.

Thanks!

Subject: [Wireshark-users] Capture analysis

Hi all,

 

I am new with using wireshark, I have the User Guide which I use to learn how to use wireshark, nevertheless I wonder is anyone has or know if I can find a documentation or explanation on how to look at the capture file I have. For exemple if I do a capture on a LDAP authentication that is failing, I seen the protocols and but what does each line means..

 

Is there any "how to look(understand) at a capture log"

 

Allt he best,
