Wireshark -  Most Common 802.11 Display Filters

11/25/2015

3 Comments

 
I often use Wireshark as my go to packet analyzer. I like it but I feel like I always forget what the display filters are. So I always find myself searching them online over and over again. So I have decided to create a reference sheet I could store and share on the blog.
​
Feel free to download and use the reference sheet as much as you want. I have voluntarily left some blank spaces so we can make it better all together. So don't hesitate to share your feedbacks with me.

*Bonus* Quick Wireshark Tips

To wrap up this article, I might as well share with you some tips I use on "my Wireshark":
  • Use of colours: I added the Metageek Eye P.A. colours to my Wireshark. It helps breaking apart 802.11 frames. Follow this link to do it on yours: Metageek Eye P.A. colours in Wireshark
  • Use of additional columns: I added some 802.11 related columns to the default setup including "Signal Strength", "Data Rate", "Channel Used" and "MCS Index")
Here is how it looks:
