Thus, I'm redirecting this to the Wireshark list.


Can i define a pure HTTP capture filer (excluding the tpc)?

What do you mean "excluding the tpc"?

If you mean "excluding the TCP", what does that mean? Do you mean "how do I define a capture filter that captures packets with HTTP traffic but doesn't capture ACK-only packets?" (HTTP runs over TCP, with some rare exceptions, so literally "excluding the TCP" would exclude HTTP as well.)

For TCP over IPv4, see

	http://www.tcpdump.org/lists/workers/2005/11/msg00027.html

for an example of a filter that will capture only TCP packets with data (i.e., no ACK-only packets).
