I was excited to learn that WireShark and WinPCAP had (experimental) remote packet capture functionality built into each product. I had installed WireShark locally on a few desktops but I wanted the ability to remotely monitor a few specific desktops without obstructing the users workflow to get a baseline for later comparison. Last week I had the task of diagnosing some very intermittent desktop/application performance issues at a remote site. WireShark has become the de-facto standard for packet capture software and is almost unrivaled in features and functionality. One such product that should be extremely high on any network engineer’s list is WireShark. I’m just continually impressed with the quality of so many open source products available today.
