Columns

ShowShark provides clear, structured columns for analysing network captures.
Each column displays key information about a packet or device to make lighting data easier to interpret.

---

Default Columns

Column	Description
No.	Packet index number within the capture
Time	Timestamp relative to capture start
Source	Device name or IP/MAC of packet sender
Destination	Device name or IP/MAC of packet receiver
Protocol	Protocol decoded (e.g. sACN, Art-Net, IGMP)
Info	Summary of payload details for quick context

---

Manufacturer Awareness

Columns automatically use friendly names when possible.
For example, known OUIs or ESTA codes are replaced with manufacturer names to make the source and destination easier to identify.

---

Customising Columns

You can toggle, resize, or reorder columns within Wireshark or ShowShark preferences.
Column layout is saved between sessions, allowing a consistent analysis view.

Use the Columns view to quickly understand packet flow, source/destination roles, and network behaviour at a glance.
