Wireshark 1.99.0 Release Notes
This is an experimental release intended to test new features for the
next stable release.
__________________________________________________________________
What is Wireshark?
Wireshark is the world's most popular network protocol analyzer. It is
used for troubleshooting, analysis, development and education.
__________________________________________________________________
What's New
Bug Fixes
New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 1.12.0:
* The I/O Graph in the Gtk+ UI now supports an unlimited number of
data points (up from 100k).
* tshark now resets its state when changing files in ring-buffer
mode.
* Expert Info severities can now be configured.
* Wireshark now supports external capture interfaces. External
capture interfaces can be anything from a tcpdump-over-ssh pipe to
a program that captures from proprietary or non-standard hardware.
This functionality is not available in the Qt UI yet.
* Qt port:
+ The Qt UI is now the default (program name is wireshark).
+ A Polish translation has been added.
+ The Interfaces dialog has been added.
+ The interface list is now updated when interfaces appear or
disappear.
+ The Conversations and Endpoints dialogs have been added.
+ A Japanese translation has been added.
+ It is now possible to manage remote capture interfaces.
+ Windows: taskbar progress support has been added.
+ Most toolbar actions are in place and work.
+ More command line options are now supported
New Protocol Support
ceph, corosync/totemnet, corosync/totemsrp, CP Cooper 2179, Dynamic
Source Routing (RFC 4728), Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation
(Geneve), IPMI Trace, iSER, KNXnetIP, OptoMMP, S7 Communication, and
Stateless Transport Tunneling
Updated Protocol Support
Too many protocols have been updated to list here.
New and Updated Capture File Support
Android logcat text files, and Wireshark now supports nanosecond
timestamp resolution in PCAP-NG files.
Major API Changes
The libwireshark API has undergone some major changes:
* Many of the ep_ and se_ memory allocation routines have been
removed.
* The (long-since-broken) Python bindings support has been removed.
If you want to write dissectors in something other than C, use Lua.
__________________________________________________________________
Getting Wireshark
Wireshark source code and installation packages are available from
[1]https://www.wireshark.org/download.html.
Vendor-supplied Packages
Most Linux and Unix vendors supply their own Wireshark packages. You
can usually install or upgrade Wireshark using the package management
system specific to that platform. A list of third-party packages can be
found on the [2]download page on the Wireshark web site.
__________________________________________________________________
File Locations
Wireshark and TShark look in several different locations for preference
files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries. These locations
vary from platform to platform. You can use About->Folders to find the
default locations on your system.
