A protocol analyzer or packet analyzer is a hardware or software tool used to intercept digital communications occurring over a portion of a network. Examples of packet analyzers (hardware and software) products are: Wireshark (Ethereal) tcpdump Netscout snoop
WireShark is a great tool for analyzing networks, finding bottlenecks, or for analyzing attacks.
'Ethereal' is an adjective.
The ethereal glow of the moonlight illuminated the garden. Her ethereal beauty captivated everyone in the room. The music had an ethereal quality that transported listeners to another world. The mist rising from the lake created an ethereal atmosphere at dawn.
Ethereal Tomb was created in 1999.
Alone, Wireshark is not a significant threat. provided that no hubs are used on a network and switches are not attacked (see Macoff) then a user running wireshark will only see traffic from their own host (see micro-segmentation). Wireshark and other packet sniffing programs should only be used by administration staff on networks as traditional users have no legitimate use for them.
No, the word 'ethereal' is an adjective used to describe a noun as extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world; for example an ethereal gown, an ethereal scene.
Ethereal Menace was created in 1999-07.
Wireshark is a perfectly legal network troubleshooting tool. However it is possible to use it in illegal ways, like many other tools.
