-== Preface
-
-[#PreForeword]
-
-=== Foreword
-
-Wireshark is the world’s foremost network protocol analyzer,
-but the rich feature set can be daunting for the unfamiliar.
-This document is part of an effort by the Wireshark team to improve
-Wireshark's usability.
-We hope that you find it useful and look forward to your comments.
-
-[#PreAudience]
-
-=== Who should read this document?
-
-The intended audience of this book is anyone using Wireshark.
-
-This book explains all of the basic and some advanced features
-of Wireshark. As Wireshark has become a very complex program,
-not every feature may be explained in this book.
-
-This book is not intended to explain network sniffing in general and it
-will not provide details about specific network protocols. A lot of
-useful information regarding these topics can be found at the Wireshark
-Wiki at link:{wireshark-wiki-url}[].
-
-By reading this book, you will learn how to install Wireshark, how to use the
-basic elements of the graphical user interface (such as the menu) and what’s
-behind some of the advanced features that are not always obvious at first sight.
-It will hopefully guide you around some common problems that frequently appear
-for new (and sometimes even advanced) Wireshark users.
