Wireshark 1.11.3 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
The following bugs have been fixed:
* "On-the-wire" packet lengths are limited to 65535 bytes.
([1]Bug 8808, ws-buglink:9390)
* "Follow TCP Stream" shows only the first HTTP req+res.
([2]Bug 9044)
* Files with pcap-ng Simple Packet Blocks can't be read.
([3]Bug 9200)
* MPLS-over-PPP isn't recognized. ([4]Bug 9492)
New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 1.11.2:
* Qt port:
+ The About dialog has been added
+ The Capture Interfaces dialog has been added.
+ The Decode As dialog has been added. It managed to
swallow up the User Specified Decodes dialog as well.
+ The Export PDU dialog has been added.
+ Several SCTP dialogs have been added.
+ The statistics tree (the backend for many Statistics
and Telephony menu items) dialog has been added.
+ The I/O Graph dialog has been added.
+ French translation has updated.
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 1.11.1:
* Mac OS X packaging has been improved.
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 1.11.0:
* Dissector output may be encoded as UTF-8. This includes
TShark output.
* Qt port:
+ The Follow Stream dialog now supports packet and TCP
stream selection.
+ A Flow Graph (sequence diagram) dialog has been added.
+ The main window now respects geometry preferences.
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since version 1.10:
* Wireshark now uses the Qt application framework. The new UI
should provide a significantly better user experience,
particularly on Mac OS X and Windows.
* The Windows installer now uninstalls the previous version
of Wireshark silently. You can still run the uninstaller
manually beforehand if you wish to run it interactively.
* Expert information is now filterable when the new API is in
use.
* The "Number" column shows related packets and protocol
conversation spans (Qt only).
* When manipulating packets with editcap using the -C
<choplen> and/or -s <snaplen> options, it is now possible
to also adjust the original frame length using the -L
option.
* You can now pass the -C <choplen> option to editcap
multiple times, which allows you to chop bytes from the
beginning of a packet as well as at the end of a packet in
a single step.
* You can now specify an optional offset to the -C option for
editcap, which allows you to start chopping from that
offset instead of from the absolute packet beginning or
end.
* "malformed" display filter has been renamed to
"_ws.malformed". A handful of other filters have been given
the "_ws." prefix to note they are Wireshark application
specific filters and not dissector filters.
Removed dissectors
* The ASN1 plugin has been removed as it's deemed obsolete.
* The GNM dissector has been removed as it was never used.

Major API Changes
The libwireshark API has undergone some major changes:
* A more flexible, modular memory manager (wmem) has been
added. It was available experimentally in 1.10 but is now
mature and has mostly replaced the old emem API (which is
deprecated).
* A new API for expert information has been added, replacing
the old one.
* The tvbuff API has been cleaned up: tvb_length has been
renamed to tvb_captured_length for clarity, and
tvb_get_string and tvb_get_stringz have been deprecated in
favour of tvb_get_string_enc and tvb_get_stringz_enc.
__________________________________________________________
Getting Wireshark
Wireshark source code and installation packages are available
from [5]http://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 [6]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.
__________________________________________________________
Known Problems
Dumpcap might not quit if Wireshark or TShark crashes. ([7]Bug
1419)
The BER dissector might infinitely loop. ([8]Bug 1516)
Capture filters aren't applied when capturing from named pipes.
(ws-buglink:1814)
Filtering tshark captures with read filters (-R) no longer
works. ([9]Bug 2234)
The 64-bit Windows installer does not support Kerberos
decryption. ([10]Win64 development page)
Resolving ([11]Bug 9044) reopens ([12]Bug 3528) so that
Wireshark no longer automatically decodes gzip data when
following a TCP stream.
Application crash when changing real-time option. ([13]Bug
4035)
Hex pane display issue after startup. ([14]Bug 4056)
Packet list rows are oversized. ([15]Bug 4357)
Summary pane selected frame highlighting not maintained.
([16]Bug 4445)
Wireshark and TShark will display incorrect delta times in some
cases. ([17]Bug 4985)
The 64-bit Mac OS X installer doesn't support Mac OS X 10.9
