Lee,

I have created multiple profiles depending on the situation I am in.
They gradually are changed as needed.

I recommend the use of profiles if you have different circumstances so you can enable or disable features where applicable and also make sure you have the most relevant information in your overview.

That in itself is an art that can save you valuable time when you use Wireshark a lot.

Onderwerp: [Wireshark-users] protocols to keep enabled?

Is there a write-up somewhere showing which protocols should be enabled for different scenarios?

I did a capture & the source picked tcp port 4556 for sending so wireshark decides it's "tcp bundle" protocol and displays much garbage.
Analyze / Enabled Protocols
remove the checkmark next to Bundle
click on Save

and garbage goes away :)   But while I was there I noticed about 500
lines of Bluetooth GATT protocols; I'm guessing that I'm not going to be looking at any bluetooth anything, so _way_ too many clicks later all that is turned off.  Any recommendations on what else should be turned off?

Thanks,
Lee
