About:
Termshark provides a terminal-based user interface for tshark, allowing users to capture and analyze network packets directly within the terminal. It offers a familiar Wireshark-like experience, featuring interactive packet inspection, filtering, and stream reassembly. This tool is ideal for analyzing network traffic on headless servers or in environments where a GUI is unavailable.
Key Features:
  • Interactive terminal UI for tshark
  • Wireshark-like packet inspection and filtering
  • Supports large capture files
  • Stream reassembly and viewing
Use Cases:
  • Analyzing network traffic on remote servers via SSH
  • Debugging network protocols in constrained terminal environments
  • Performing quick packet captures without launching a GUI
Alternatives:
  • Wireshark – The standard GUI-based network protocol analyzer; requires a graphical desktop environment.
  • tshark – The command-line engine behind Wireshark; powerful but lacks an interactive UI.
