Not only teaches how to use Wireshark but also how to interpret and get the best out of the packet captures.
It also contains practical and real life examples.
Perfect book to have when troubleshooting network issues.

This is one the best book I ever read about networking and if you want to become 'serious' about network traffic analysis you definitely will find this book extremely valuable.
Despite the fact that you are interested in the certification or not this book will give you a lot of information about the analysis of the most common protocols you can find in a network environment and how to analyse and interpreter them.
The exposition is clear and full of examples. You can download some additional material: more than 100Mb of captures and practice with it.
The section about how to use the graph and how to spot the most common problems and attack you can experience in a network environment is very interesting: after reading it I was able to prove to our IT department why our internet was so slow a suggest a possible fix.
I highly recommend this book! Enjoy :-)

The book divides into two sections: the first 13 chapters wade through WireShark's gui interface, which as other reviewers have noted isn't exactly riveting. Read more
