Capinfos is just for file info, not capturing.

I’m a bit confused; I thought Capinfos was related to analyzing capture files, but I can’t recall if it’s the command-line tool we need here.

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, and I think Tcpdump was mentioned as a similar tool, but it’s not Wireshark, right?

I'm a little confused by this question. I know Wireshark is a popular network analysis tool, but I'm not sure about the command-line version. I'll have to review my notes on Wireshark to see if I can figure this out.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know Wireshark is a network analyzer, but I'm not totally familiar with the command-line tools. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is Tshark, since that's the command-line version of Wireshark that can capture live packets or read saved capture files.

Tshark, the Chuck Norris of packet sniffers. It probably captures packets with a single roundhouse kick.

Tshark, huh? I guess that's the nerdy cousin of Wireshark. But hey, at least it doesn't come with those fancy graphics that make my eyes hurt.

Ah, yes! Tshark is the command-line version of Wireshark. I use it all the time when I'm too lazy to open the GUI. It's like a ninja version of Wireshark.
