Chapter 1, Introduction to Wireshark Version 2, covers basic tasks related to Wireshark. Chapter 2, Mastering Wireshark for Network Troubleshooting, covers issues that improve the use of Wireshark as a network analysis tool. Chapter 3, Using Capture Filters, talks about capture filters. Chapter 4, Using Display Filters, shows how to work with display filters. Chapter 5, Using Basic Statistics Tools, looks at simple tools that provide us with basic network statistics. Chapter 6, Using Advanced Statistics Tools, covers advanced statistical tools—I/O graphs, TCP stream graphs, and, in brief, UDP multicast streams. Chapter 7, Using the Expert System, teaches you how to use the expert system, a tool that provides deeper analysis of network phenomena, including events and problems. Chapter 8, Ethernet and LAN Switching, focuses on how to find and resolve layer 2-based problems, with a focus on Ethernet-based issues such as broadcast/multicast events, errors, and finding their source. Chapter 9, Wireless LAN, analyzes wireless LAN traffic and diagnoses connectivity and performance problems reported by users. Chapter 10, Network Layer Protocols and Operations, primarily focuses on layer 3 of the OSI reference model and shows how to analyze the layer 3 protocol (IPv4/IPv6) operations. We also cover unicast and multicast traffic flow analysis. Chapter 11, Transport Layer Protocol Analysis, primarily focuses on the transport layer of the OSI reference model, but also teaches you how to analyze various layer 4 protocol (TCP/UDP/SCTP) operations. Chapter 12, FTP, HTTP/1, and HTTP/2, discusses these protocols, how they work, and how to use Wireshark to find common errors and problems in the network. Chapter 13, DNS Protocol Analysis, covers the basic principles of the DNS protocol, the functionality, commonly faced issues, and the use of Wireshark to analyze and troubleshoot the protocol. Chapter 14, Analyzing Mail Protocols, looks at the normal operation of email protocols and h
