Sample Captures

So you're at home tonight, having just installed Ethereal. You want to take the program for a test drive. But your home LAN doesn't have any interesing or exotic packets on it? Here's some goodies to try. Please note that if for some reason your version of Ethereal doesn't have zlib support, you'll have to gunzip any file with a .gz extension.

This page replaces the previous sample capture page on the [WWW]Ethereal main site.

How to add a new Capture File

If you want to include a new example capture file, you should attach it to this page. In the corresponding text, you might explain what this file is doing and what protocols, mechanisms or events it explains. Links from here to the related protocol pages are also welcome.

Please don't just attach your capture file to the page without putting an attachment link in the page, in the format attachment:attachment.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 at 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/attachment.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

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 [WWW]http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-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

Requests for particular captures

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???

Can anybody provide the ethereal capture of RANAP?

Beware when cutting/pasting, some spaces are inserted after the backslash and bash shells don't like that.

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 [WWW]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!

The reason the wget doesn't work is the <meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow"> in the html of the wiki pages. Is there a reason we have that?

Try using Download Accelerator Plus (DAP). When integrated with Firefox there is an option called "Save all .." in the right-click context menu

Hi :)

I used htget, but got all these Sample.* Prefixes, which may you want to remove:

first _backup_

rename like this:

for i in SampleCaptures\?action\=AttachFile* ; do mv "$i"  $( echo $i|sed 's/S.* 
target=//g' ); done

opt. move NetMon files in a separate directory:

mkdir NetMon; 
mv `file * |grep NetMon| awk '{ print $1 }'| tr ':' ' ' ` NetMon/

btw. could one provide an atm capture as textfile?
