In this video, I'm going to show you how to download and install Wireshark on a mac.
If you haven't got a mac, then skip this video.
But if you want to see how to install Wireshark on a mac, I'm going to show you that here.
The first thing you need to do is go to Wireshark dot org.
This is the official website and click download.
In my example, I'm going to download Wireshark for Mac OS 10.12 and later.
So click on that link that then downloads the software to my local computer.
It's a fairly simple installation.
Basically go to the website, click download and then download the software.
I'm going to open it when it's finished.
And then it's a fairly simple installation.
Okay, so the package file or dmg file is being opened and verified.
I'm going to double click on the package file.
That's being verified.
And now I can follow the installation wizard.
Basically, all I'm going to do is click next, next, next and install the software.
I'm going to put my password in to allow it to be installed.
The software is now being installed on my computer.
And as you can see, that has successfully completed.
I'm going to keep the DMG file for the moment and close this window.
I'm going to open up a find a window and go to applications.
And search for Wireshark.
So there it is.
I'm going to right click and click open.
And notice they're unable to start capturing traffic in Wireshark.
I'm going to double click on the Ethernet interface and notice I can now capture traffic in why shock?
Hold the search for RPA.
Notice I can see off messages from a Cisco router hoping for a specific IP address.
So a lot of broadcast traffic there.
But basically, I'll be able to see traffic on the network.
Including Dropbox sinking so sinking protocol there's some V and C traffic actually on the network.
His op once again.
He has TLS so encrypted web traffic.
Bunch of traffic being sent on the network.
But that's an example of how to install Wireshark on a mac.
In subsequent videos, I'm going to show you how to use Wireshark more effectively than just grabbing
all traffic.
I'll stop this capture and then close Wireshark down, but I won't save the captured file.
Okay.
So there you go.
That's how you download and install Wireshark on a mac.
