Sample Captures
So you're at home tonight, having just installed Wireshark. You want to take the program
for a test drive. But your home LAN doesn't have any interesting or exotic packets on it?
Here's some goodies to try. Please note that if for some reason your version of Wireshark
doesn't have zlib support, you'll have to gunzip any file with a .gz extension.
Please don't just attach your capture file to the page without putting an attachment link in
the page, in the format attachment:filename.ext; if you don't put an attachment link
in the page, it's not obvious that the capture file is available.
It's also a very good idea to put links on the related protocol pages pointing to your file.
Referring to an attachment on this page from another Wiki page requires a link on that
other Wiki page in the format attachment:SampleCaptures/filename.ext. For an
example of this, see the NetworkTimeProtocol page.

Discussion
Is sample the right name, instead of example? I always think about a sampling rate. - Ulf
Lamping
In this context, "sample" and "example" are interchangeable. I'm not sure which is more
formally correct. - Gerald Combs
Think of "sample" as in "take a free sample of our magazine". Sampling really means
that you're taking samples at specific points in time, so it is OK. - Olivier Biot
Hmmm, still unsure. Following your logic, Sample and Capture would have almost the
same meaning. But I'm usually not interested that the capture is sampled from a specific
network at a specific point in time, I'm looking for examples, how a specific network
traffic does look like. I would think that sample in the way it's used here, is just an
abbreviation for example, or do I miss something here. - Ulf Lamping
I see. Maybe then "example capture" is more appropriate than "sample capture" or
"capture(d) sample". - Olivier Biot
What about "example sample"... Everyone would get it, and, most of it, it rhymes! -
Luis Ontanon
What are the rules regarding attaching sample captures? I mean those that aren't yours. If
it was seen "in the wild" (e.g., attached to an email on the mailing list or a bug), is that
public enough for someone to attach it here? - Jeff Morriss
Should we add example captures from the mailing list here? In those cases it is obvious
that they are donated as examples of a protocol? I am thinking of something like
http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200003/msg00078.html -- ronnie
I've been thinking about that too -- if a sample example is sent to the list it's publicly
avalable on the net intended or not and could be added to the examples? -- at least if its
not obviusly a (bad) misstake -- Anders
Can someone please add a capture of dnp3 messages both udp and tcp?
Can someone please add a capture of PROFINET like PNIO packages and some
commands of the used Network (like names and IP's of the devices)? Thanks a lot.
Can Someone add a RTP capture with AMR audio. If it is capturered from a push-to-talk
session it would be wonderful for me. Thanks.
Can somebody add a packet capture of RADIUS conforming to RFC 2865 and RFC
2866?
I need a capture like the previous : VoIP but an international call. (need to check delays
for a university work). Thanks
Does anybody out there have pcap files with the following?: Citrix ICA traffic, CU-
SeeMe Video conference traffic, EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol)
traffic, X-Win remote access, SunRPC traffic, SOCKS traffic, SKYPE traffic,
pcAnywhere traffic, NNTP traffic or MGCP traffic???
An Iu-CS capture would be welcomed, containing both RANAP and Iu-UP traces of for
example an AMR voice call.
I added Iu-CS capture just now!!! Please look under UMTS section. -Samba
sambasiva.manchili@nexustelecom.com When you open this in it may show
IuUP packets, as UDP stream. In this case please click on relevant UDP packet
and then select from menu Analyze--->Decode As RTP(both ports) under
Transport tab. In case of any help required, please do not hesitate to write to me.
Anyone have a capture of RTP conforming to RFC 2198 (Redundant Audio) or RFC
2733 (Generic FEC) encoding? Associated SIP/SDP signaling would be a bonus.
Does anyone have any capture files containing "raw" ATM packets (with AAL0/AAL5
would be handy)?. Thank you --
Estou desenvolvendo uma ferramenta em C++ que tem como entrada uma mensagem no
formato hexadecimal, encapsulada nos protocolos SS7, do tipo: ISUP, INAP e CAP. E
como saída um arquivo .cap ou .pcap para ser lido pelo WireShark. Para concluir esse
projeto gostaria de ter um exemplo de arquivo de entrada (extensão .cap o .pcap)
encapsulado nos protocolos INAP E CAP, pois nos arquivos de exemplo disponiveis só
encontrei do protocolo ISUP.
I am developing a tool in C++ that has as input a message in the hexadecimal format,
encapsulated in SS7 protocols, of the type: ISUP, INAP and CAP. As exit a file .cap or
.pcap to be read by the WireShark. To conclude this project it would like to have an
example file (extension cap pcap) encapsulated in protocols INAP and CAP, because in
the example files I only found of ISUP protocol.
Can anyone add a UCP capture? especially 5x series messages but others would be helful
too... Thanks
Does anyone have HDLC traffic, like for example between WAN routers?
Yes,

Damn, I don't know why this wget commands gets a bad Forbidden from the server when
politely asking for some files
ok, here is something that _works_ (tested) but then, ahem, it's ugly:
Beware when cutting/pasting, some spaces are inserted after the backslash and bash
shells don't like that.
--Phil
ok, I tried this one on my suse 9.3 box but htget was not found. A quick google showed
that this tool seems to be Debian specific. It looks natural for us "newbie distribution
users" to be more and more jealous of Debian... Anyway I found the source code at
http://ftp.cvut.cz/debian/pool/main/h/htget/htget_0.93-1.1woody1.tar.gz and expanding
the file, followed by 'make', 'make install' (as root) and copying htgetrc to ~/.htgetrc did
the trick. Thanks so much for this, ahem, ugly skript that has the undeniable advantage of
working great!
