Hi @Nakka Shankar

For opening the generating the 'pcap' file in Wireshark you have to download the Wireshark software, using 'winopen' command will give you options to open the pcap file with different options.

But apart from Wireshark if you open the pcap file it will in unsupported format which might not help you to analyse the pcap file.

%winopen(cufilename)   % Uncomment to open the file in Wireshark on Windows

If you have the downloaded Wireshark, then it will redirect you to Wireshark and opens the pcap file when you use the 'winopen' command.

You can download Wireshark from here: https://www.wireshark.org/download.html

• Another option here is you can right click on the generated pcap file in workspace and select 'Open outside MATLAB' option and can access the pcap file in Wireshark or other options.

I hope this will help you to open the pcap file in Wireshark and analyse the network traffic data.

Thanks.
