Is there a browser-based alternative to Wireshark for analyzing packet captures?

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to find a web-based tool that can show packet capture (pcap) files in a way that’s similar to Wireshark. My team wants to set up a shared repository for protocol-specific captures, and we think a web interface would be perfect for this.

Does anyone know of any good options out there? We’re looking for something that can:

  • Display pcap content clearly
  • Be accessed through a web browser
  • Allow easy sharing among team members

It would be great if it had features like packet filtering and protocol analysis too. Any suggestions or experiences with tools like this would be super helpful!

Thanks in advance for any tips!

Have you considered A-Packets? It’s a web-based packet analyzer that might fit your needs. I’ve used it for collaborative projects, and it offers a clean interface for viewing pcap files directly in the browser. You can upload captures, share them with team members, and perform basic analysis without installing anything.

While it may not have all the advanced features of Wireshark, A-Packets provides solid functionality for most common protocols. It supports filtering and basic protocol dissection, which should cover your team’s main requirements. The shared repository aspect is particularly useful – you can organize captures by project or protocol type.

One potential drawback is that it’s not as feature-rich as desktop alternatives, but for web-based analysis and team collaboration, it’s quite effective. Might be worth exploring to see if it meets your specific needs.

hey, have u looked into packetTotal? its a free online pcap analyzer that might work for ur team. u can upload files, do basic analysis, and share results. not as powerful as wireshark, but could be good for quick checks and collab. worth a shot maybe?

ooh, have you tried cloudshark? I heard its pretty cool for browser-based packet analysis. it lets you upload pcaps and share em with your team. might be worth checking out! how big is your team, btw? and what kinda protocols are you guys mostly working with?
