Milestone 6 problem

QBox Module 5
#1

whenever i try to capture packets using
sudo tcpdump -C 2 -w client_connection_file_transfer.pcap

and initiate a file transfer via filezilla , it gets queued

and the tcpdump captures many packets and creates

client_connection_file_transfer.pcap
client_connection_file_transfer.pcap1
client_connection_file_transfer.pcap2
client_connection_file_transfer.pcap3

and soon

but the transfer via filezilla stays queued

only when i terminate the tcpdump command with ctrl-c
the transfer via filezilla takes place

please help
stuck with this issue

#2

You need to filter out dump based on ports.
Try add port not 8080 at the end of tcp dump command

#3

try limiting tcpdump to a specific port or exclude 8080 port in that way the size of .pcap decreases drastly and only one file is created

#4

thanks solved it
thankyou very much for the help

#5

even with this so many packets are coming, in milestone 3 which protocol to filter out?

#6

you need to figure out where the tcp handshake started by using filters
