  1. Choose a network interface Click on Capture, then Interfaces from the menu, and choose the appropriate option.
  2. Add Filters in Wireshark To create and edit capture filters, go to Manage Capture Filters from the bookmark menu or navigate to Capture, then Capture Filters from the main menu.

To create and edit display filters, select Manage Display Filters from the bookmark menu or go to the main menu and select Analyze, then Display Filters.

You can add a new filter by clicking on the Add button, which is a black plus sign on a light-gray background. Another way to add a new filter is to right-click on the filter button area. To remove a filter, click on the minus button. The minus button will be grayed out if there’s no filter selected.

  1. Filter by IP Address Run the following operation in the Filter box: ip.addr==[IP address] and hit Enter.
ip.addr == X.X.X.X => ip.adr == 192.168.1.199

display every packet where Source ip == 192.168.1.199 or Destination ip == 192.168.1.199.

ip.src == 192.168.1.199 || ip.dst == 192.168.1.199

You can do multiple IP filtering based on logical conditions [ || , && ] OR condition:

(ip.src == 192.168.1.199 ) || ( ip.dst == 192.168.1.199)

AND condition:

(ip.src == 192.168.1.199) && (ip.dst == 192.168.1.1)
  • Source IP ip.src == [IP address]
  • Destination IP ip.dst == [IP address]
ip.src == X.X.X.X => ip.src == 192.168.1.199

ip.dst == X.X.X.X => ip.dst == 192.168.1.199

  1. Filter Wireshark by URL http contains “[URL]. “

  2. Filter Wireshark by Port Number Tcp.port eq [port number].

  3. Filtering Out (Excluding) Specific IP in Wireshark

!(ip.addr == 192.168.2.11)
!(ip.src == 192.168.2.11)
  1. Filter Specific IP Subnet
ip.addr == 192.168.2.0/23

Capture Filter vs Display Filter

When you use a Capture Filter you only get part of the data and hopefully it’s the part you want because you cannot change the Capture Filter during the Capture. Capture Filters are entered into the Capture Filter filed on the start screen before you pick your interface.

  1. Capture Filter for Specific IP /SRC IP/ DEST IP
host 192.168.2.11
src host 192.168.2.11
dst host 192.168.2.11
  1. Capture Filter for Specific Subnet
net 192.168.2.0/23

Or

net 192.168.2.0 mask 255.255.254.0
