David K, one of my YouTube subscribers, asked a great question, “… How do i configure packet slicing? …”. What a great question since I assume the reader knows how to do this.
In this video I cover how to figure out the packet slicing value for a HTTP GET command and the destination MAC address. From these two examples, the reader should be able to calculate any other packet slice value.
The demonstration walks through the entire process in under three minutes: setting up the ping shortcut, starting a Wireshark capture on your wireless interface, performing key actions like submitting a contact form, and strategically placing pings before and after events.
In this video, we look at the Kafka protocol basics with Wireshark.
I have reached that point in life where my doctor starts many of his comments with “At your age....”. I have come to realize this is more than a mere figure of speech. Like most of my contemporaries, I began by trying to figure out “what” I was going to be (first a physician, eventually an engineer). I gave little thought to when or how age might nudge me onto an off-ramp from the expressway to money and success. Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old? by Richard Leider and David Shapiro reminds us that sooner or later, our life-long model for living an accomplished life will fall apart. The book is not a list of answers or techniques, but rather a new perspective that will provoke thought and provide inspiration. Getting old is inevitable (provided you choose your parents carefully and take good care of yourself), but growing old, pursuing the “who” of your life, requires purpose.
