Can You Capture Packets That Are Being Blocked On Your System?
I get this question a lot and surprised I have yet to address it. Someone asked “will Wireshark capture the packets my firewall blocks. Unfortunately, the short answer is “it depends on a few variables”.
I thought it would be helpful if I showed you how I would answer this question.
The methodology is pretty simple;
Get a baseline:
Disable firewall
Start capture with an icmp capture filter
Have another computer ping you
Stop capture and review results
Test
Enable firewall
Start capture with an icmp capture filter
Have another computer ping you
Stop capture and review results
Don’t worry about what I got, determine how your computer behaves.
Enjoy
