TCP has a receive buffer where incoming data is stored until an application grabs it. One of the messages that usually *does* indicate some kind of problem is the “TCP ZEROWINDOW” message. But seeing this message occasionally is normally not a cause for concern. If you get a lot of packets out of order at one time, say three or four in a row, then it could be that there is a problem, in which case you can move your capture point further upstream to see if the DUP ACK messages disappear at some point. But that can happen sometimes and isn’t necessarily indicative of trouble.
This message lets the sender know that the receiver got a packet out of order. A little research with a good book on TCP could raise a concern that you’re experiencing lost packets, but that may not be what’s happening. You can tell Wireshark not to worry about this error message by navigating to the Edit menu, choosing Preferences, expanding Protocols, clicking TCP, and clearing the checkbox “Validate the TCP Checksum if possible.”Īnother message that you might see occasionally is “TCP DUP ACK” (short for “duplicate acknowledgment”). Because Wireshark captures outbound packets before they actually get to the hardware, it doesn’t see that the NIC is applying the correct TCP checksums, and so it flags an error. If you’re using reasonably modern hardware, what’s probably happening is that your operating system is offloading the checksum calculation to the NIC hardware, which can do it faster and with less strain on your CPU. One example of a possible “non-error error” is when you see a lot of “TCP CHECKSUM INCORRECT” messages during a file copy operation. Don’t be too concerned if you see some packets that appear this way – it might indicate a problem, but then again it might not. For example, if Wireshark detects potential problems, it colors them with red text on a black field. and this is what I m using now, because tshark is so slow in spliting.One of the features of Wireshark that you may have noticed, if you’ve been reading my posts this week and doing some experimenting on your own, is that the program color-codes packets in the packet list pane. Using pcapfix I can fix the corrupt packets then SplitCap never crashes again.
SplitCap is super fast but when there is an error in some packet it crashes, while tshark only inform you about the error but continue : tshark: The file "cap.pcap" appears to have been cut short in the middle of a packet.Īnd finally there is PcapSplitter which is super fast too but it need the winpcap driver, it doesn't work with the npcap driver in windows.
This solution with tshark is so slow but sure. Tr -d '\r' is for windows users, because tshark in windows output CR LF. The filename will be like that: stream number_time_source IP_port_destination IP_port.pcap Inspired by here is a bash version: file=cap.pcap
