Wireshark –

Wireshark is a free and open source packet Sniffer. It is used to troubleshoot networks, Analyse protocols and packets communicating in the network.
Originally It was named Ethereal and was renamed to Wireshark after some trademark issues.

Functionality –

Wireshark Works in promiscuous mode so they can screen all traffic visible on that adapter, not just traffic addressed to one of the adapter's configured addresses and broadcast/multicast traffic. So when capturing with a packet analyzer in promiscuous mode on a network, not all traffic through the switch is necessarily sent to the port where the capture is done, so capturing in promiscuous mode is not necessarily enough to see all network traffic. Port mirroring extends capture to any point on the network.
