Wireshark 1.2
There’s a new version of Wireshark out.
If that means nothing to you, then you’re not one of my geek readers. And, that’s cool. Hold on and something more interesting will be coming for you soon.
For those of you who are geeks, check this out, okay? There are tons of improvements, including a Windows 64-bit installer, improved reports and assorted output, the inclusion of GeoIP lookups, and many, many more. I’ve used Wireshark, on and off, for several years now and these are really good additions. I especially dig the ability to lookup where IPs may be coming from more easily. I often have to deal with international TCP/IP traffic and knowing which is from where can be really helpful.
And, yes, there is still a version for Mac and Linux, besides the new Windows versions.
So, go check this out. If you didn’t want to fillow the link above to Lifehacker, you can just jump right to the Wireshark site to see their marketing pitch on the latest version. And, of course, it’s still all free.
