[Disclaimer stuff: this blog is not an evolving Git-like-repo, instead it’s in effect a snapshot detailing how in June 2022 the author was able to get Wireshark-with-SAP-Dissectors working in various OS and architecture scenarios.

And we look briefly into how to retrieve SAP data using the SAPDIAG protocol Dissector of the Wireshark plugin.

We also show how to make sure that remote capture (via the sshdump tool) is available in all the Wireshark instances you install, and how you can remotely capture SAPGUI traffic.

We show some effective ways to get a Wireshark+SAP-Dissectors instance up and running on Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS for amd64 (x86_64) and arm64 (aarch64) architectures, as well as on an Intel-based (amd64) MacBook and on an M1 (arm64) MacBook.

Wireshark can also be used to analyse SAP-specific network traffic – such as for example SAPGUI traffic and RFC traffic – using a most excellent Wireshark plugin for SAP Dissectors, the code for which is maintained by SecureAuth on GitHub: Wireshark is a popular and free open-source toolset for analysing network traffic:
