However, if the addresses are contiguous or in the same subnet, you might be able to get away with a subnet filter. One time-consuming approach would be to literally type out all the addresses you want to filter on. Refer to the wireshark-filter man page for more information about the slice operator and. In this video, I respond to a question from one of my readers who wanted to create a display filter for many IP addresses. For example, if the source address was 50.xxx.xxx.100 and the destination address was .152, then the packet would still match the filter, as the 1st byte of the source address would match as well as the last byte of the destination address. In either case, you will need to use a display filter to narrow the traffic down. Even when you have a capture filter, it may be too generic. You may not know what to focus on when you capture packets, resulting in no capture filter. A display filter is configured after you have captured your packets. A capture filter is configured prior to starting your capture and affects what packets are captured. Note that in Wireshark, display and capture filter syntax are completely different. In this video, I review the two most common filters in Wireshark. One of the keys to being an effective network troubleshooter when using a protocol analyzer is the ability to see patterns, which is where filters come into play.
