Getting Wireshark
|
|
|
|
Wireshark source code and installation packages are available from
|
|
the download page on the main web site.
|
|
|
|
Vendor-supplied Packages
|
|
|
|
Most Linux and Unix vendors supply their own Wireshark packages.
|
|
You can usually install or upgrade Wireshark using the package
|
|
management system specific to that platform. A list of third-party
|
|
packages can be found on the download page on the Wireshark web
|
|
site.
|
|
|
|
File Locations
|
|
|
|
Wireshark and TShark look in several different locations for
|
|
preference files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries.
|
|
These locations vary from platform to platform. You can use
|
|
About->Folders to find the default locations on your system.
|
|
|
