Networking

Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV) is a collaborative project under the Linux Foundation that is transforming global networks through open source Network Functions Virtualization (NFV)

OSM is delivering an open source Management and Orchestration (MANO) stack aligned with ETSI NFV Information Models. As an community-led community, OSM offers a production-quality MANO stack that meets operators' requirements for commercial NFV deployments.

Enabling High Performance Data Transfers notes for users and system administrators who want to maximize TCP/IP performance on their computer systems.

bandwidth-delay product, aka "Long Fat Network" (LFN), is the product of a data link's capacity (in bits per second) and its round-trip delay time (in seconds)

TCP window scale option is an option to increase the receive window size allowed in Transmission Control Protocol above its former maximum value of 65,535 bytes. This TCP option, along with several others, is defined in IETF RFC 1323 which deals with long fat networks (LFNs).

Capture Filters

Capture filter examples

Filter by destination IP address dst host x.x.x.x

Filter by a set of TCP ports tcp port 22 or tcp port 443 or tcp port 8080

Filter by TCP/UPD port port 5060

Display filter examples

Filter out TCP Keep-Alive and TCP Keep-Alive ACK with this filter:

!(tcp.flags.ack && tcp.len <=1)

Filter by port 442 and remove TCP Keep-Alive and TCP Keep-Alive ACK with this filter:

tcp.port == 443 && !(tcp.flags.ack && tcp.len <= 1)

Add custom columns

Add TCP length column to Wireshark

TCP length column

tshark

Export from network capture all TCP payloads using a display filter as octet stream (ASCII hex stream)

tshark -r <file_name> -Y "ip.src==192.168.1.100 && tcp.port==22222" -T fields -e data > output_file_name.txt

Editcap

Reference editcap man page

Saves only packets whose timestamp is on or after start time. The time is given in the following format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.

Example of timestamps after 2018-12-26 00:00:00 using PowerShell:

& 'C:\Program Files\Wireshark\editcap.exe' -A "2018-12-26 00:00:00" infile outfile

Example to limit capture file from frame number 890000 to 910000 (inclusive) using PowerShell:

& 'C:\Program Files\Wireshark\editcap.exe' -r infile.pcap smallerOutFile.pcap 890000-910000

Note: smallerOutFile.pcap in above example will have different frame numbers (counting starts over when you open file).
