I'm proud to announce the release of Wireshark 1.11.2. This is an
experimental release intended to test new features for the next stable
release.

     __________________________________________________________

What is Wireshark?

   Wireshark is the world's most popular network protocol
   analyzer. It is used for troubleshooting, analysis, development
   and education.
     __________________________________________________________

What's New

  Bug Fixes

   The following bugs have been fixed:
     * "On-the-wire" packet lengths are limited to 65535 bytes.
       ([1]Bug 8808, ws-buglink:9390)
     * "Follow TCP Stream" shows only the first HTTP req+res.
       ([2]Bug 9044)
     * Files with pcap-ng Simple Packet Blocks can't be read.
       ([3]Bug 9200)

  New and Updated Features

   The following features are new (or have been significantly
   updated) since version 1.11.1:
     * Mac OS X packaging has been improved.

   The following features are new (or have been significantly
   updated) since version 1.11.0:
     * Qt port:
          + The Follow Stream dialog now supports packet and TCP
            stream selection.
          + A Flow Graph (sequence diagram) dialog has been added.
          + The main window now respects geometry preferences.

   The following features are new (or have been significantly
   updated) since version 1.10:
     * Wireshark now uses the Qt application framework. The new UI
       should provide a significantly better user experience,
       particularly on Mac OS X and Windows.
     * A more flexible, modular memory manger (wmem) has been
       added. It was available experimentally in 1.10 but is now
       mature and has mostly replaced the old API.
     * Expert info is now filterable and now requires a new API.
     * The Windows installer now uninstalls the previous version
       of Wireshark silently. You can still run the uninstaller
       manually beforehand if you wish to run it interactively.
     * The "Number" column shows related packets and protocol
       conversation spans (Qt only).
     * When manipulating packets with editcap using the -C
       <choplen> and/or -s <snaplen> options, it is now possible
       to also adjust the original frame length using the -L
       option.
     * You can now pass the -C <choplen> option to editcap
       multiple times, which allows you to chop bytes from the
       beginning of a packet as well as at the end of a packet in
       a single step.
     * You can now specify an optional offset to the -C option for
       editcap, which allows you to start chopping from that
       offset instead of from the absolute packet beginning or
       end.
     * "malformed" display filter has been renamed to
       "_ws.malformed". A handful of other filters have been given
       the "_ws." prefix to note they are Wireshark application
       specific filters and not dissector filters.

     __________________________________________________________

Getting Wireshark

   Wireshark source code and installation packages are available
   from [4]http://www.wireshark.org/download.html.

  Vendor-supplied Packages

   Most Linux and Unix vendors supply their own Wireshark
   packages. You can usually install or upgrade Wireshark using
   the package management system specific to that platform. A list
   of third-party packages can be found on the [5]download page on
   the Wireshark web site.
     __________________________________________________________

File Locations

   Wireshark and TShark look in several different locations for
   preference files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries.
   These locations vary from platform to platform. You can use
   About->Folders to find the default locations on your system.
     __________________________________________________________
