# Wireshark Network Traffic Analysis
## Purpose
Execute comprehensive network traffic analysis using Wireshark to capture, filter, and examine network packets for security investigations, performance optimization, and troubleshooting. This skill enables systematic analysis of network protocols, detection of anomalies, and reconstruction of network conversations from PCAP files.
## Inputs / Prerequisites
### Required Tools
- Wireshark installed (Windows, macOS, or Linux)
- Network interface with capture permissions
- PCAP/PCAPNG files for offline analysis
- Administrator/root privileges for live capture
