Wireshark 3.4.0 Release Notes
This is the first release candidate for Wireshark 3.4.
What is Wireshark?
Wireshark is the worlds most popular network protocol analyzer. It is
used for troubleshooting, analysis, development and education.
Whats New
Many improvements have been made. See the “New and Updated Features”
section below for more details.
New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 3.3.1:
• The Protobuf fields defined as google.protobuf.Timestamp type of
Protobuf standard library can now be dissected as Wireshark
fields of absolute time type.
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 3.3.0:
• The Windows installers now ship with Npcap 1.00. They previously
shipped with Npcap 0.9997.
• The Windows installers now ship with Qt 5.15.1. They previously
shipped with Qt 5.12.8.
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 3.2.0:
• Windows executables and installers are now signed using SHA-2
only[1].
• Save RTP stream to .au supports any codec with 8000 Hz rate
supported by Wireshark (shown in RTP player). If save of audio is
not possible (unsupported codec or rate), silence of same length
is saved and warning is shown.
• Asynchronous DNS resolution is always enabled. As a result, the
c-ares library is now a required dependency.
• Protobuf fields can be dissected as Wireshark (header) fields
that allows user input the full names of Protobuf fields or
messages in Filter toolbar for searching.
• Dissectors based on Protobuf can register themselves to a new
'protobuf_field' dissector table, which is keyed with the full
names of fields, for further parsing fields of BYTES or STRING
type.
• Wireshark is able to decode, play, and save iLBC payload on
platforms where the iLBC library[2] is available.
• Wireshark is able to decode, play, and save opus payload on
platforms where the opus library[3] is available.
• “Decode As” entries can now be copied from other profiles using a
button in the dialog.
• sshdump can now be copied to multiple instances. Each instance
will show up a different interface and will have its own profile.
• The main window now supports a packet diagram view, which shows
each packet as a textbook-style diagram.
• Filter buttons (“Preferences → Filter Buttons”) can be grouped by
using “//” as a path separator in the filter button label.
• IPP Over USB packets can now be dissected and displayed
