-
-== User Interface
-
-[#ChUseIntroductionSection]
-
-=== Introduction
-
-By now you have installed Wireshark and are likely keen to get started
-capturing your first packets. In the next chapters we will explore:
-
-* How the Wireshark user interface works
-* How to capture packets in Wireshark
-* How to view packets in Wireshark
-* How to filter packets in Wireshark
-* ... and many other things!
-
-[#ChUseStartSection]
-
-=== Start Wireshark
-
-You can start Wireshark from your shell or window manager.
-
-[TIP]
-.Power user tip
-====
-When starting Wireshark it’s possible to specify optional settings using the
-command line. See <<ChCustCommandLine>> for details.
-====
-
-The following chapters contain many screenshots of Wireshark. As
-Wireshark runs on many different platforms with many different window managers,
-different styles applied and there are different versions of the underlying GUI
-toolkit used, your screen might look different from the provided screenshots.
-But as there are no real differences in functionality these screenshots should
-still be well understandable.
-
-[#ChUseMainWindowSection]
-
-=== The Main window
-
-Let’s look at Wireshark’s user interface. <<ChUseFig01>> shows Wireshark as you
-would usually see it after some packets are captured or loaded (how to do this
-will be described later).
-
-[#ChUseFig01]
-.The Main window
-image::images/ws-main.png[{screenshot-attrs}]
-
-Wireshark’s main window consists of parts that are commonly known from many
-other GUI programs.
-
-. The _menu_ (see <<ChUseMenuSection>>) is used to start actions.
-. The _main toolbar_ (see <<ChUseMainToolbarSection>>) provides quick access to
- frequently used items from the menu.
-. The _filter toolbar_ (see <<ChUseFilterToolbarSection>>) allows users to
- set _display filters_ to filter which packets are displayed (see
- <<ChWorkDisplayFilterSection>>).
-. The _packet list pane_ (see <<ChUsePacketListPaneSection>>) displays a summary
- of each packet captured. By clicking on packets in this pane you control what is
- displayed in the other two panes.
-. The _packet details pane_ (see <<ChUsePacketDetailsPaneSection>>) displays the
- packet selected in the packet list pane in more detail.
-. The _packet bytes pane_ (see <<ChUsePacketBytesPaneSection>>) displays the
- data from the packet selected in the packet list pane, and highlights the field
- selected in the packet details pane.
-. The _packet diagram pane_ (see <<ChUsePacketDiagramPaneSection>>) displays the
- packet selected in the packet list as a textbook-style diagram.
-. The _statusbar_ (see <<ChUseStatusbarSection>>) shows some detailed
- information about the current program state and the captured data.
-
-[TIP]
-====
-The layout of the main window can be customized by changing preference settings.
-See <<ChCustPreferencesSection>> for details.
-====
-
-[#ChUseMainWindowNavSection]
-
-==== Main Window Navigation
-
-Packet list and detail navigation can be done entirely from the keyboard.
-<<ChUseTabNav>> shows a list of keystrokes that will let you quickly move around
-a capture file. See <<ChUseTabGo>> for additional navigation keystrokes.

-
-[#ChUseMenuSection]
-

-====
-Some menu items will be disabled (greyed out) if the corresponding feature isn’t
-available. For example, you cannot save a capture file if you haven’t captured
-or loaded any packets.

-[#ChUsePacketListPaneSection]

-=== The “Packet List” Pane
-
-The packet list pane displays all the packets in the current capture file.
-
-[#ChUseWiresharkListPane]
-.The “Packet List” pane
-image::images/ws-list-pane.png[{screenshot-attrs}]
-
-Each line in the packet list corresponds to one packet in the capture file. If
-you select a line in this pane, more details will be displayed in the “Packet
-Details” and “Packet Bytes” panes.
-
-While dissecting a packet, Wireshark will place information from the protocol
-dissectors into the columns. As higher-level protocols might overwrite
-information from lower levels, you will typically see the information from the
-highest possible level only.
-
-For example, let’s look at a packet containing TCP inside IP inside an Ethernet
-packet. The Ethernet dissector will write its data (such as the Ethernet
-addresses), the IP dissector will overwrite this by its own (such as the IP
-addresses), the TCP dissector will overwrite the IP information, and so on.
-
-There are many different columns available. You can choose which columns are
-displayed in the preferences. See <<ChCustPreferencesSection>>.
-
-The default columns will show:
-
-* btn:[No.] The number of the packet in the capture file. This number won’t
- change, even if a display filter is used.
-
-* btn:[Time] The timestamp of the packet. The presentation format of this
- timestamp can be changed, see <<ChWorkTimeFormatsSection>>.
-
-* btn:[Source] The address where this packet is coming from.
-
-* btn:[Destination] The address where this packet is going to.
-
-* btn:[Protocol] The protocol name in a short (perhaps abbreviated) version.
-
-* btn:[Length] The length of each packet.
-
-* btn:[Info] Additional information about the packet content.
-
-The first column shows how each packet is related to the selected packet. For
-example, in the image above the first packet is selected, which is a DNS
-request. Wireshark shows a rightward arrow for the request itself, followed by a
-leftward arrow for the response in packet 2. Why is there a dashed line? There
-are more DNS packets further down that use the same port numbers. Wireshark
-treats them as belonging to the same conversation and draws a line connecting
-them.

- The selected packet is a duplicate acknowledgement of this packet.
-
-image:images/related-segment.png[{related-attrs}]::
- The selected packet is related to this packet in some other way, e.g., as part
- of reassembly.
-
-The packet list has an _Intelligent Scrollbar_ which shows a miniature map of
-nearby packets. Each https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics[raster line]
-of the scrollbar corresponds to a single packet, so the number of packets shown
-in the map depends on your physical display and the height of the packet list. A
-tall packet list on a high-resolution (“Retina”) display will show you quite a
-few packets. In the image above the scrollbar shows the status of more than 500
-packets along with the 15 shown in the packet list itself.

-<<ChWorkPacketListPanePopUpMenu>>.

-packet are shown in a tree which can be expanded and collapsed.
-
-There is a context menu (right mouse click) available. See details in
-<<ChWorkPacketDetailsPanePopUpMenu>>.
-
-Some protocol fields have special meanings.
-
-* *Generated fields.* Wireshark itself will generate additional protocol
- information which isn’t present in the captured data. This information
- is enclosed in square brackets (“[” and “]”). Generated information
- includes response times, TCP analysis, IP geolocation information, and
- checksum validation.
-
-* *Links.* If Wireshark detects a relationship to another packet in the capture
- file it will generate a link to that packet. Links are underlined and
- displayed in blue. If you double-clicked on a link Wireshark will jump to the
- corresponding packet.
-
-[#ChUsePacketBytesPaneSection]

-
-[#ChUseWiresharkBytesPane]
-
-.The “Packet Bytes” pane
-image::images/ws-bytes-pane.png[{screenshot-attrs}]
-
-The “Packet Bytes” pane shows a canonical
-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hex_dump[hex dump] of the packet data. Each line
-contains the data offset, sixteen hexadecimal bytes, and sixteen ASCII bytes.
-Non-printable bytes are replaced with a period (“.”).
-
-Depending on the packet data, sometimes more than one page is available, e.g.
-when Wireshark has reassembled some packets into a single chunk of data. (See
-<<ChAdvReassemblySection>> for details). In this case you can see each data
-source by clicking its corresponding tab at the bottom of the pane.
-
-The default mode for viewing will highlight the bytes for a field where the
-mouse pointer is hovering above. The highlight will follow the mouse cursor
-as it moves. If this highlighting is not required or wanted, there are two
-methods for deactivating the functionality:
-
-* *Temporary* By holding down the Ctrl button while moving the mouse, the
- highlighted field will not change
-
-* *Permanently* Using the context menu (right mouse click) the hover highlighting
- may be activated/deactivated. This setting is stored in the selected profile
- __recent__ file.
