I'm proud to announce the release of Wireshark 4.2.2. What is Wireshark? Wireshark is the world’s most popular network protocol analyzer. It is used for troubleshooting, analysis, development and education. Wireshark is hosted by the Wireshark Foundation, a nonprofit which promotes protocol analysis education. Wireshark and the foundation depend on your contributions in order to do their work. If you or your employer would like to contribute or become a sponsor, please visit wiresharkfoundation.org[1].

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.
