Hello,

I read here that network byte order is big-endian for TCP. This is a protocol-level property.

Two questions regarding endianness in capture files:

  1. Is it correct that captured packet headers are written in the byte order of the host that wrote the file? In other words, what determines the endianness of the headers in a frame?
  2. Building off #1, is it possible that, while a protocol-level property of TCP is big-endian, there is no guarantee that a packet that I inspect on Wireshark will have TCP headers that are written in big-endian?

For example,

The Ethernet header here displays type: IPv4 in big-endian (and so do the other headers). But this may not always be the case?

Thanks!

2020-03-13 18:13:46 +0000 marked best answer How Can I Display as Much Pcapng Information As Possible?

Hello,

I'm looking to build a Pcapng parser. As such I need to programatically determine how large the Section Header Block, and in essence, reverse engineer my parser from raw data. Pcap files were easy, the general header was 24 bytes at the beginning of each file, and the file header was 16 bytes, that's it. It seems that, after reading the 40 page whitepaper on Pcapng, that it's going to be a little tougher.

How do I enable seeing as much information regarding Pcapng data on Wireshark? I'm looking at a Pcapng file right now, but can't tell anything Pcapng related about it.

Would appreciate the help.
