Wireshark (originally named “Ethereal”) is a network packet analyzer that captures network packets and displays the packet data as detailed as possible. If you want to see multicast traffic just exclude it.1. The and not (eth.dst & 1) excludes any packet with the ethernet multicast bit set to true. There are other local ranges you might be using. Note that the above only excludes local IP traffic in the 192.168.* and 10.* IP range. Putting it all together, this filter will exclude local IP, IPv6, and broadcast/multicast packets: not (ipv6.dst = fe80::/10 and ipv6.src = fe80::/10) and Instead we know that the link-local IPv6 prefix is FE80::/10 so to exclude traffic that both originates from and is destined to this range we use this filter: It's 2022 and IPv6 is now a thing! IPv6 makes this trickier since you'll usually have multiple v6 addresses and they often change. If you only wanted to filter http traffic to and from that host, you could do this: not (host 192.168.5.22 and port 80) For example, to keep from capturing http and ssh traffic to/from any host and any packets to or from 192.168.5.22, not host 192.168.5.22 and not port 80 and not port 22 The downside is those packets are not captured if you later want to inspect them and you can't change the filter selected this way during a capture session.
It makes the capture take less memory and disk by avoiding capturing packets you're telling it to ignore. While not strictly your question, I prefer to do filtering in the capture filter (double click the interface name in the capture-options dialog), whose syntax is exactly like tcpdump. Tcp.dstport != 80 suffers from a similar problem having tcp.dstport != 80 turns out to mean "match ONLY tcp traffic, but only tcp that is not dstport = 80" Here's a complete example to filter http as well: not ip.addr = 192.168.5.22 and not tcp.dstport = 80 For example, when connecting to 192.168.5.254 from 192.168.5.22, ip.addr != 192.168.5.22 doesn't match *.22 IP, it matches *.254 and thus the packet matches the filter expression. It might seem more logical to write it as ip.addr != 192.168.5.22, but while that's a valid expression, it will match the other end of the connection as not being the specific ip and still be true.
You could also write it like so: not (ip.addr = 192.168.5.22) With the negative match like you have, you need both conditions to be true to filter off your IP, thus and instead of or.
