Hi, First of all you should put these things to the user list, more chance of a response. Secondly, look into using dumpcap from the command line to do the capture for you. Thanks, Jaap On 05/13/2010 11:43 AM, Ari Yoskovitz wrote:
Hi. I am working with massive amounts of packets. At some point, Wireshark starts to choke, or there is a warning about low virtual memory. I would like to tell Wireshark to auto-save the packets to a file once in a while, and clear the memory so it can handle more packets. Of course, I will later need some way to re-load all the data and still not have any memory problems. MAYBE it can be done somehow with the capture filter, namely to load only what I need from the created file. Is there such (or a similar) feature? Thanks.
