Wireshark packet analyzer tool code#
All versions of Wireshark and the source code are fully open source and can be downloaded for free. The source code is also available for those who want to modify Wireshark to run within a unique environment.
Wireshark was initially written to run on Solaris and Linux, but now runs on virtually all operating systems including Windows and macOS. Even without that ability, Wireshark is able to sniff out most packets flowing through a network, no matter the OS, the networking protocol, encryption method or file format.
