Hi guys

I have install Wireshark on a VM with Windows10, but i see only the traffic related to vm, what i need to configure to capture all the traffic related to vmbr0?

Thanks
 
hi,

yes that's normal, to see all the traffic you'd have to run wireshark/tcpdump on the PVE host.
 
Hi @oguz

So it's not possible on a vm?

I need to install wireshark on proxmox?
if you want the traffic from all your VMs then you need to run it on the host.

to install wireshark you'd need a graphical X interface on your PVE [0], but you could also just install tcpdump, capture the packets to a pcap file, transfer it to your machine, and open it in wireshark :)

for example something like tcpdump -envi vmbr0 -w my_packets.pcap should work on your PVE host
