Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] timestamp fields and RTT calculation

RTT is the difference in capture time of TCP frames with a certain SEQ and then corresponding followup ACK from the receiver. (Unfortunately sometime Wireshark gets this wrong particularly where later where zero length segments are involved.)

Hi,

again a question about tshark, are there fields containing the TSval and TSecr Values which are part of the Timestamp option, which could be added to the field list using
tshar -r File -T fields -e ... ?

Furthermore how does tshark calculate the value of tcp.analysis.ack_rtt?

Cheers.
