tshark
Add the Wireshark and TShark repository:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:wireshark-dev/stable
Install TShark:
sudo apt install -y tshark
Run the following command to add current user to a wireshark group:
sudo usermod -a -G wireshark $USER
In order to make changes to take effect, logout and login to your machine. After reconnection, you can check TShark version:
tshark --version
Execute tshark command without any arguments to start capturing packets on default network interface:
tshark
We can find network interfaces which are available to the TShark with command:
tshark -D
The -i option allows to capture packets on specific network interface.
tshark -i ens33
