Title: Saving without payload
We have a high priority requirement to save the capture, stripping out ALL payload bytes. This is for UK legal compliance when analysing traffic subject to data protection.
I can easily just capture the first 68 bytes of each packet, but that will sometimes include the first part of the payload.
Ideally, we want to capture everything and then save only the headers.
We would also like to be able to ‘anonymise’ the IP addresses during the save.
Can Wireshark do any of this? It would seem to be a useful feature required in many countries where such data protection is in place.
Without doing this we cannot mail the capture file to R&D for investigation, in fact we cannot even save the capture to a local disk.
