Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] compression algorithms

Is there a compression algorithm that is supported by Wireshark?

 

We are working on a project and are looking for a good lossless

compression algorithm for stream compression.  Would it make

sense to use gzip for stream encoding?  Any other suggestions?

 

Ideally it would be something that is understood by Wireshark.

 

Thanks,

Matt
