Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] ssl.handshake and ring buffer capture

Hi,

 

I’ve setup tshark to do a nightly capture and include ssl traffic.  The decryption is working great.  The problem

I have is I’m keeping files to a 50mb size so the files are manageable in wireshark to view and filter.  The captures

Can be several hundred mb.  The decryption works great in the 1st capture file from the ring buffer where the

Ssl.handshake info exists, but the subsequent files from the ring buffer don’t have that information in it of course,

And consequently wireshark does not then decrypt the subsequent files.  

Is there an eloquent way to handle this?

 

Thanks,

John
