I need a Wireshark power-user who can jump straight into a live capture session, dissect packets as they flow, and package the results into a concise, well-structured report. The core of the job is to observe my network in real time, save the capture for reference, and explain exactly what is happening at each protocol layer in language that a technically-savvy reader can follow. Traffic in scope • HTTP/HTTPS traffic • ARP and ICMP traffic • TCP/UDP traffic What you will do Start by placing the proper capture filters, then record enough data to illustrate normal and abnormal patterns on the wire. I am particularly interested in the TCP three-way handshake—please call out the SYN, SYN-ACK, and ACK packets with port numbers and sequence/acknowledgement values—plus any resets or retransmissions that appear. For every device you see, map the MAC address to its vendor and note anything unusual. Walk through ARP requests and replies, log ICMP echo traffic, and highlight any latency or error codes. Deliverables 1. A clean, reader-friendly report (Word or PDF) that walks through your findings, including protocol usage breakdowns and overall insights. 2. Annotated screenshots that show key packets, filters, and statistics so the narrative is easy to follow. 3. A separate TCP flow diagram or written breakdown of at least one full connection, illustrating the handshake and subsequent data exchange. 4. The original .pcap or .pcapng file saved with your display filters intact so I can reproduce every screenshot. Acceptance criteria • Report clearly references packet numbers that match the supplied capture file. • All screenshots are annotated and legible. • MAC-to-vendor lookups are accurate. • Filters used for HTTP/HTTPS, ARP, ICMP, and TCP/UDP are documented so I can repeat the process. If this matches your skill set and you’re confident in packet-level troubleshooting, let’s get started.

I specialize in packet-level network analysis — writing BPF capture filters, dissecting protocol layers, and tracing TCP state machines, ARP cycles, and ICMP sequences. I've delivered this type of work to clients before. What you'll get: Scoped BPF capture filters for HTTP/HTTPS, ARP, ICMP, and TCP/UDP — clean and fully reproducible TCP handshake breakdown (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK) with packet numbers, ports, and sequence/acknowledgement values — resets and retransmissions flagged MAC-to-vendor table via IEEE OUI registry with anomalies noted ARP request/reply log, ICMP echo/reply sequences with RTT values and error codes Full report (Word + PDF), annotated screenshots, TCP flow diagram, and PCAPNG file with saved display filters Every acceptance criterion is covered — packet numbers match the capture, all filters documented with exact syntax, MAC lookups verified. Ready to start immediately. Delivered in 2–3 days, revisions included. Ali Hassan — Network Security Specialist

Hi , I can certainly assist with your network analysis and reporting. I am a Wireshark power-user comfortable with live packet dissection and translating complex wire data into clear, actionable insights. For this project, I will provide: -Session Support: Setting precise capture filters to isolate HTTP/HTTPS, ARP, ICMP, and TCP/UDP traffic without the noise. -Deep Analysis: Detailed breakdown of the TCP three-way handshake (SYN/ACK sequence tracking), retransmissions, and MAC-to-vendor mapping. -Professional Documentation: A structured PDF report featuring annotated screenshots and a TCP flow diagram, ensuring every finding is tied back to specific packet numbers in the provided .pcapng file. My rate for this task is $20/hour, which covers both the live capture session and the dedicated time required to produce a high-quality, reproducible report. I’m ready to jump into a session whenever you are. Best regards

I am a skilled Wireshark user with hands-on experience in real-time packet analysis and network troubleshooting. I can efficiently capture, filter, and analyze HTTP/HTTPS, TCP/UDP, ARP, and ICMP traffic, providing clear insights at every protocol layer. I will document TCP handshakes (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK), identify retransmissions or anomalies, and map MAC addresses to vendors accurately. You will receive a well-structured report with annotated screenshots, detailed explanations, and a complete TCP flow breakdown. I will also deliver the original capture file with documented filters to ensure full reproducibility. I am ready to start immediately and deliver high-quality, precise results.

Hello, I'm ready to jump straight into your live capture session right now. Through extensive hands-on experience solving advanced SOC and network analysis scenarios on TryHackMe, I have built the exact packet-level troubleshooting skills you need. I will accurately filter your HTTP, ARP, ICMP, and TCP traffic, map MAC addresses, and dissect the complete TCP three-way handshake down to the exact sequence numbers and flags. I will deliver a concise PDF report, accurately annotated screenshots mapped to packet numbers, a clear TCP flow breakdown, and the original .pcapng file with all display filters documented so you can easily reproduce my findings. Just one quick question, Is this a one-time capture session, or are you looking for ongoing network analysis? This will just help me align on whether a fixed-price or hourly structure works best for you. I'm ready to start working immediately, feel free to hit my DM with more details or any questions. Best regards, Zeyad

="61547"} Hello, This project matches my skill set very well. I am a Network & Security Engineer with strong hands-on experience using Wireshark for packet-level troubleshooting, traffic analysis, performance investigations, and protocol debugging in enterprise environments. I can join a live capture session, analyze packets in real time, and translate the findings into a clean technical report that clearly explains what is happening across each protocol layer. My experience includes detailed analysis of: • HTTP / HTTPS sessions • TCP handshakes, resets, retransmissions, and window behavior • UDP traffic flows • ARP requests / replies and layer-2 resolution issues • ICMP latency, unreachable messages, and echo testing • DNS and application connectivity troubleshooting • MAC address identification and vendor mapping For your deliverables, I can provide: • Professional Word / PDF report with findings and protocol insights • Annotated screenshots with packet numbers, filters, and explanations • Full TCP flow breakdown including SYN / SYN-ACK / ACK and data exchange • Saved .pcap / .pcapng capture files with reusable display filters • Repeatable filter list for HTTP/HTTPS, ARP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP traffic I would be happy to begin with a live session and quickly turn the capture into a structured troubleshooting report. Best Regards Ushakiran Network & Security
