Wireshark 3.1.0 Release Notes

 This is an experimental release intended to test new features for
 Wireshark 3.2.

 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

  Many improvements have been made. See the “New and Updated Features”
  section below for more details.

  New and Updated Features

   The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
   since version 3.0.0:

     • Dark mode support on macOS and dark theme support on other
       platforms has been improved.

     • Brotli decompression support in HTTP/HTTP2 (requires the brotli
       library).

     • The build system now checks for a SpeexDSP system library
       installation. The bundled Speex resampler code is still provided
       as a fallback.

     • WireGuard decryption can now be enabled through keys embedded in
       a pcapng in addition to the existing key log preference (Bug
       15571[1]).

     • A new tap for extracting credentials from the capture file has
       been added. It can be accessed through the "-z credentials"
       option in tshark or from the "tools" menu in Wireshark.

  New Protocol Support

   CableLabs Layer-3 Protocol IEEE EtherType 0xb4e3 (CL3), Distributed
   Replicated Block Device (DRBD), Dual Channel Wi-Fi (CL3DCW), evolved
   Common Public Radio Interface (eCPRI), FTDI FT USB Bridging Devices
   (FTDI FT), Graylog Extended Log Format over UDP (GELF), GSM/3GPP CBSP
   (Cell Broadcast Service Protocol), Network Controller Sideband
   Interface (NCSI), NR Positioning Protocol A (NRPPa) TS 38.455, and
   NVM Express over Fabrics for TCP (nvme-tcp)

  Updated Protocol Support

   Too many protocols have been updated to list here.

  New and Updated Capture File Support

 Getting Wireshark

  Wireshark source code and installation packages are available from
  https://www.wireshark.org/download.html[2].

  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 download page[3] 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.

 Getting Help

  The User’s Guide, manual pages and various other documentation can be
  found at https://www.wireshark.org/docs/[4]

  Community support is available on Wireshark’s Q&A site[5] and on the
  wireshark-users mailing list. Subscription information and archives
  for all of Wireshark’s mailing lists can be found on the web site[6].

  Bugs and feature requests can be reported on the bug tracker[7].

  Official Wireshark training and certification are available from
  Wireshark University[8].

 Frequently Asked Questions

  A complete FAQ is available on the Wireshark web site[9].
