There is a duct tape and baling wire work around:
- Use
tshark
to grab a list of all protocols: tshark -G protocols
The protocol name is the last entry on the line:
Lua Dissection Lua Dissection _ws.lua
Expert Info Expert _ws.expert
29West Protocol 29West 29west
On linux: tshark -G protocols | sed -e "s/.* //"
(that's a tab not space in the pattern match)
- Take the list of protocols and add them to the
disabled_protos
file in your profile directory.
- Open Wireshark and check the protocols
Analyze -> Enabled Protocols...
At this point a Disable All
and Ok
to disable the remaining heuristic protocols didn't crash the GUI.
Can you paste information from "wireshark -v" or Help->About Wireshark.
