Hi All,

 

I have an automation requirement, that needs tshark to be stoped upon meeting certain condition.

 

From the tshark man pages, I found that stopping condition can be applied with rrespect to duration, files, file size and multiple files mode.

 

Is there any stopping condition I can apply through capture filter so that tshark stops capturing.

 

ex: Upon receiving a TCP SYN packet (condition applied in capture filter), tshark stops capturing.

 

Please let me know any option like this is available.

 

Regards,
Senthil kumar
