New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 2.5.0:
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 2.6.0:
• HTTP Referer statistics are now supported.
• The Windows .exe installers now ship with Npcap instead of
WinPcap.
• Wireshark now supports MaxMind DB files. Support for GeoIP
and GeoLite Legacy databases has been removed.
• Conversation timestamps are supported for UDP/UDP-Lite protocols
• The Windows packages are now built using Microsoft Visual
Studio 2017.
• TShark now supports the -G elastic-mapping option which generates
an ElasticSearch mapping file.
• The IP map feature (the “Map” button in the “Endpoints”
dialog) has been removed.
• The “Capture Information” dialog has been added back (Bug
12004[2]).
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 2.4.0:
• The Ethernet and IEEE 802.11 dissectors no longer validate the
frame check sequence (checksum) by default.
• Display filter buttons can now be edited, disabled, and
removed via a context menu directly from the toolbar
• The TCP dissector gained a new “Reassemble out-of-order segments”
preference to fix dissection and decryption issues in case TCP
segments are received out-of-order. See the Users Guide, chapter
TCP Reassembly for details.
• Drag & Drop filter fields to the display filter toolbar or
edit to create a button on the fly or apply the filter as a
display filter.
• Decryption support for the new WireGuard dissector (Bug 15011[3],
requires Libgcrypt 1.8).
• Application startup time has been reduced.
• The BOOTP dissector has been renamed to DHCP. With the exception
of “bootp.dhcp”, the old “bootp.*” display filter fields are
still supported but may be removed in a future release.
• Some keyboard shortcut mix-ups have been resolved by
assigning new shortcuts to Edit → Copy methods.
• The SSL dissector has been renamed to TLS. As with BOOTP the old
“ssl.*” display filter fields are supported but may be removed in
a future release.
• TShark now supports color using the --color option.
• Coloring rules, IO graphs, Filter Buttons and protocol preference
tables can now be copied from other profiles using a button in
the corresponding configuration dialogs.
• The "matches" display filter operator is now
case-insensitive.
• APT-X has been renamed to aptX.
• Display expression (button) preferences have been converted
to a UAT. This puts the display expressions in their own
file. Wireshark still supports preference files that
contain the old preferences, but new preference files will
be written without the old fields.
• When importing from hex dump, its now possible to add an
ExportPDU header with a payload name. This calls the specific
dissector directly without lower protocols.
SMI private enterprise numbers are now read from the
"enterprises.tsv" configuration file.
• The sshdump and ciscodump extcap interfaces can now use a proxy
for the SSH connection.
The QUIC dissector has been renamed to Google QUIC (quic →
gquic).
Dumpcap now supports the -a packets:NUM and -b packets:NUM
options.
• The selected packet number can now be shown in the Status
Bar by enabling Preferences → Appearance → Layout → Show
selected packet number.
• Wireshark now includes a “No Reassembly” configuration profile.
• File load time in the Status Bar is now disabled by default
and can be enabled in Preferences → Appearance → Layout →
Show file load time.
• Wireshark now supports the Russian language.
• Support for the G.729A codec in the RTP Player is now added
via the bcg729 library.
• The build system now supports AppImage packages.
Support for hardware-timestamping of packets has been
added.
The Windows installers now ship with Qt 5.12.0. Previously they
shipped with Qt 5.9.7.
• Improved NetMon .cap support with comments, event tracing,
network filter, network info types and some Message
Analyzer exported types.
Removed Features and Support
• The personal plugins folder on Linux/Unix is now
~/.local/lib/wireshark/plugins.
• The legacy (GTK+) user interface has been removed and is no
longer supported.
TShark can print flow graphs using -z flow…
Wireshark requires Qt 5.2 or later. Qt 4 is no longer supported.
• Capinfos now prints SHA256 hashes in addition to RIPEMD160
and SHA1. MD5 output has been removed.
• Wireshark requires GLib 2.32 or later.
The packet editor has been removed. (This was a GTK+ only
experimental feature.)
Building Wireshark requires CMake. Autotools is no longer
supported.
Support BBC micro:bit Bluetooth profile
TSharks -z compare option was removed.
• The Linux and UNIX installation step for Wireshark will now
install headers required to build plugins. A pkg-config
file is provided to help with this (see doc/plugins.example
for details). Note you must still rebuild all plugins
between minor releases (X.Y).
New File Format Decoding Support
• The Windows installers and packages now ship with Qt 5.9.4.
• The generic data dissector can now uncompress zlib
compressed data.

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[3] on
the Wireshark web site.

preference files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries.
