Better late than never,I realized the importance of learning tools to add aesthetic touch to the job.As part of my preparation towards WCNA(Wireshark Certified Network Analyst] I got this book and read it fully.It certainly going to occupy part of my office space for daily reference.This book guided me to march on those uncharted regions[GeoIP,RingBuffer,TSHARK,EDITCAP,MERGECAP,HTTP Object capturing etc...] of wireshark.I recommend this book for users who are looking to enhance their tool usage(related to wireshark) in particular and network troubleshooting in general.
Thanks for the book and expecting more from you Laura.
Laura has a way of breaking this "nutrient-dense" subject matter and making it palatable for even the most ADHD among us (squirrel!). Although bits, bytes, frames and packets are not everyone's cup-o-tea this book goes a long way toward "mainstreaming" network analysis for the "masses". If you are "good with computers" and you want to get a much better understanding of what's going on in your network "under the hood" then this book is a great place to start. Although, there is NO final exam for this 101 course, it WILL prepare you for 201 (hint to Laura).
