You must capture traffic on a Windows Server 2022 Core host and later analyze SMB 3.1.1 and TLS 1.3 handshakes with up-to-date protocol decoders. Which toolset should you use?

The correct approach is to capture traffic using tshark or dumpcap on the Server Core host and then analyze the resulting .pcapng file with Wireshark on a workstation. Wireshark is the industry standard for network protocol analysis, offering comprehensive and up-to-date decoders for protocols like SMB 3.1.1 and TLS 1.3. tshark and dumpcap are command-line tools that are part of the Wireshark suite and are suitable for capturing on a Server Core installation. Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4 is an outdated tool and does not fully support modern protocols like SMB 3.1.1 and TLS 1.3. Microsoft Message Analyzer was intended as a replacement for Network Monitor but has also been deprecated and is no longer supported. NMCap is a command-line capture tool associated with Network Monitor and suffers from the same limitations regarding modern protocol parsing. Analyzing directly on Server Core with a graphical tool like Wireshark is not feasible, and command-line tools like tshark are primarily for capture, not comprehensive graphical analysis.
