For those of you who love Wireshark and are supporting IPv4, we would like to offer a great default profile for IPv4.
Profiles are one of the most important Wireshark capabilities. Setting up and using different profiles for different environments, protocols, and tasks is a crucial skill that we teach in our Wireshark courses. Let’s say you went to the Wireshark site and tried to find some! Suprisingly, here is what you would get:

Let’s look at what you get with this default profile.

Again, all of this is a great starting point. What do you think we are missing? What would you add?
