Automation

0

Hi,

We have wireshark in our lab. We have encoders,set boxes in our company and we used capture the packets using UDP multicast.

We are trying to automate T-shark using AutoIT Language?  Tshark –V –R “ip.addr == 233.1.1.202” –i 1 –c 1

Do you have any idea on T-shark Automation? is it possible?

For sure it is possible to automate tshark with AutoIT. However, I don't understand what you are trying to do and what kind of problem you ran into with AutoIT?

Can you please add more details?

Regards
Kurt

Are you running tshark with that exact command line? If so you're delimiting each flag with a Unicode EN DASH (U+2013) instead of a plain old regular HYPHEN-MINUS (U+002D). Here's what hexdump returns when I feed it one of the dashes above:

$ echo -n – | hexdump
0000000 e2 80 93                                       
0000003
