HiIs there any way in Wireshark where the pcaps when opened show the timestamps according the timezone where it has been captured.Foe example, i have few captures which has been captured in one timezone and when i open them locally in another timezone the timestamps dispayed got adjusted as per my timezone and i need to change the timezone of my machine in order to see the accurate timestamps.So, is there any preference or setting which can enable to view the original timestamps?
The timezone information is not even stored in the PCAP file, so, no, there's no way to automatically do that. The PCAP-NG file format does allow the file to store the time zone but according to our Wiki page on the subject:
http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/PcapNg The timezone feature is "not sufficiently specified."As Tim mentioned, it's easy enough (if you know the time zone) to get Wireshark to use the appropriate time zone. There is also a request:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2629 To allow you to do this from the GUI. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
