Can I use Wireshark as a sniffer on Modbus/TCP traffic? Can I use it for simulating either a Modbus/TCP client or a server? asked 14 Mar '12, 19:54 mshani edited 14 Mar '12, 22:23 Guy Harris ♦♦ |
One Answer:
Wireshark includes, at least in the top of the SVN trunk, a Modbus/TCP dissector:
and I think that was added before the 1.6 release, so 1.6.x, and possibly earlier releases, should have it, so you should be able to decode and analyzer Modbus/TCP traffic on any network on which Wireshark can capture traffic.
No. Wireshark is a packet sniffer (network analyzer), not a network simulator. answered 14 Mar '12, 22:23 Guy Harris ♦♦ |
