How to apply filter for inbound and outbound traffic?
How to apply filter for inbound and outbound traffic? I want to monitor the inbound and outbound in Wireshark.
Thanks
Maybe surprisingly there's no indicator in a captured packet if it egressed or ingressed an interface (for most types of interfaces). However, other characteristics of an interface may be used to make that distinction. A very common one is the use of the IPv4 address of the packets: if it's the hosts source address used as source address, the packet is egressing.
This would be the display filter expression: ip.src == <IPv4 host>
This would be the capture filter expression: ip src host <IPv4 host>
Another parameter you can use if the MAC address of the interface.

There is none of that ChatGPT AI stuff here.
It's more like ELIZA:
What are you trying to accomplish?
What do you define as inbound and outbound in your situation? Answer that and the filter may be derived from that.
I have installed Wireshark in my host machine and I want any traffic coming or going from host to all clients machine, I can monitor the traffic.so for this how can I validate which are inbound traffic and which are outbound.
