2018-06-25 09:41:45 +0000 marked best answer Why this is not a "TCP previous segment not captured"

Hi,

I am implementing "TCP segment not captured" analysis flag (aka Wireshark display filter "tcp.analysis.lost_segment") in my application.

With this PCAP file I get a false positive with frame #15328. In Wireshark there is no analysis flag set for this frame. But I would expect a "TCP previous segment not captured" with this.

Can somebody explain why frame #15328 shall have no "TCP previous segment not captured"?

The previous frame in the same direction (#15327) got the analysis flag "TCP Retransmission" and therefore it is not considered to set the "Next expected sequence number", which is then relevant for frame #15328.

from https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_h... Next expected sequence number: The last-seen sequence number plus segment length. Set when there are no analysis flags and and for zero window probes. This is initially zero and calculated based on the previous packet in the same TCP flow. Note that this may not be the same as the tcp.nxtseq protocol field.

Any idea? Thank you!

I have just found the bug in my implementation. I was not considering #15327 for "Next expected sequence number" because

This sounds reasonable. And yes, with ignoring #15327 I get what I expected. But I would like to understand the "defaul

Thank you for the confirmation. I have opened this bug report

Great! This sounds very reasonable. I was not aware of WindowSize is not negotiated but WindowScale is. Maybe the prob

Thank you for your answer. With packet 79 the remaining window bytes are 0. With packet 80 the window size is increased
