Hello, I am sending two XMLs with same HTTP headers. But for one, wireshark shows HTTP under Protocol column and for other it shows HTTP/XML. Why is it so? Is it dependent on the XML header or some other parameter defined by wireshark? I just want to know when wireshark shows HTTP(and HTTP/XML) under Protocol column? asked 16 Oct '15, 01:56  wsuser |
One Answer:
Whether '/XML' get's appended to the protocol column or not, depends on the media type your are using in the HTTP request, like "text/xml", "application/soap+xml" and some others. You'll find a list of them in packet-xml.c in the Wireshark source code. You say, that you are using the "same" HTTP headers. If that's the case, both frames should have "HTTP/XML" in the protocol column. Please upload a sample capture file somewhere and post the link here, so we can check.
