So I need to measure the traffic in bytes between two endpoints. If I

file size be an accurate reflection of the traffic between the two
endpoint.
Does Wireshark add any overhead to the capture file that I need to take
into account by subtracting it from the captured file size to get a
accurate traffic figure which I require to set up bandwidth management
filters.
Can anybody help ?
