Network & Host Analysis: Protocol Analysis

Wireshark is the de facto tool for network protocol analysis. The ability to live capture deeply inspect filter decrypt and export network data comprises Wiresharks feature-rich capabilities. In this course youll examine the vital elements of network protocol analysis and learn how to reap the benefits of Wiresharks features. Youll start by exploring some common network analysis patterns. Youll then outline the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model. Next youll differentiate between passive and active network scanning. Moving on youll use Wireshark to capture and filter network traffic and customize packet capturing. Finally youll use Wireshark to save and then export packet captures apply highlighting rules extract files configure profiles apply display filters and implement advanced capture and display filtering.
