Wireshark is an open source network protocol analyzer that can be used for protocol development, network troubleshooting, and education. Wireshark lets you analyze gRPC messages that are transferred over the network, and learn about the binary format of these messages. In this post, you’ll learn how to configure and use the Wireshark gRPC dissector and the Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) dissector, which are protocol-specific components that allow you to analyze gRPC messages with Wireshark.
