Using Wireshark to Understand the Zigbee Network Layer

What You Will Learn!

How to analyze Zigbee network layer traffic in Wireshark
How to recognize the major components in a Zigbee network
How traffic is routed in a Zigbee network

Description

Zigbee is the dominant protocol being used in sensor networks in our homes and enterprise organizations. If you are working in the Internet of Things (IoT) space, then you need to have an understanding of what Zigbee is and how it works.

The best way to get an in depth understanding of network protocols, such as Zigbee, without spending hours reading technical books and specifications, is to actually look at the traffic that is traversing the network.

In this course you will download and look at Zigbee packet captures in the open source packet capture tool called WiresharkTM. No prior working knowledge of Wireshark is required.

The video is a just over hour long. However, it is recommended that you allow 2 hours to take this course, so that you may follow along with the Wireshark analysis.
