Abstract
Data travels over networks as invisible packets in today's digital world, and comprehending this process is essential, particularly when addressing problems like latency, congestion, orsecurity risks. This study investigates how we can track and analyse this data in real time using Wireshark, a potent network protocol analyser. We illustrate how deep packet inspection aids in detecting anomalies and resolving performance issues by recording and analysing protocols such as TCP and HTTP. This analysis demonstrates the importance of packet capture as a tool for efficient network administration and cybersecurity.
