I am investigating whether a web-driven interface for Wireshark exists that replicates the functionality of the desktop version. I require a solution that can visually present the contents of a PCAP file in a manner akin to Wireshark’s native display. My goal is to create a centralized repository for PCAP files related to a particular protocol, making it easier for our development team to collaboratively review and analyze network traffic data. Any guidance or suggestions would be appreciated.
hey, i havent seen a full web inteface for wirshark yet; some have tried wrapping tshark output into a web gui though. how would you meld that into your current setup? curious if any else has tinkered with similar ideas
The challenge of replicating the full functionality of desktop Wireshark in a web environment remains unsolved officially. My experiments have involved integrating tshark with lightweight web frameworks such as Flask, where device data is processed on the backend and rendered on the client side with simple JavaScript libraries. Although this approach allows for some level of interactivity and visual representation of PCAP files, it lacks the comprehensive analysis features of the desktop version. Custom development may be the best option if specific functionalities are required.
