How many http and https connections established in wireshark?

Question

I ran wireshark for a while and opened a few webpages now my class assignment is asking me to find out the number of http and https connections established. Can you suggest commands or filters to find these out?

Answer 1

HTTP is connection-less, that means client and server knows about each other during current request and response only. You can open the.pcapng file and then

• Click on “Statistics”
• Select “HTTP”
• Select “Packet Counter“

In my case, I can 14 requests and 14 responses. (Success 2xx).
