Suggestion for wireshark enhancement?

asked 2025-01-14 13:54:22 +0000

Hi,

I've a suggestion to improve Wireshark.

Idea is that Wireshark is able to reference a list of IP, MAC addresses etc and than highlight any addresses that match the referenced user list. An example might be a blacklist of banned IP's or a whitelist of customer IP's. I'm sure many other users would find this facility useful.

The list could be in the form of CIDR addresses and comments..eg 192.168.0.0/16, blacklisted 192.168.2.0/24, customer of ABC Ltd

Any thoughts?

Regards

Martin

Isn't this already covered by filtering in general and color filters specifically as they can be named?

Thanks for response.

That certainly works for a low number of ip addresses, but in my case I've list of several thousand addresses. It'd be really helpful to be able store these addresses in a text file, then import them in to wireshark

The place for enhancement requests is over on the Wireshark Git Lab Instance. Raise an issue and tag it as "enhancement"
