Wireshark Packet Analysis VS Network Packet Sniffer Capture Analysis And Troubleshooting

Wireshark Packet Analyzer VS Network Packet Sniffer Capture Analysis and Troubleshooting

What is the Network Packet Sniffer to do?

A Network Packet Sniffer is a tool that captures and analyzes network traffic between connected devices. It can intercept data packets intended for other machines, recording them for later examination. Network communication involves data being broken into smaller packets, each carrying destination and source information. When packets reach their destination, they are reassembled. Network Packet Sniffers, unlike packet analyzers, collect packets without attempting to interpret their contents.

Although primarily used for network troubleshooting, Network Packet Sniffers can also have malicious applications, capturing personal data for potential misuse. Various tools like Wireshark, tcpdump, and Microsoft Network Monitor can both capture and analyze network traffic.
