Wireshark - anyone used it?

I’ve used Wireshark at home, and at work. At work it was very useful for analyzing a (relatively unique) network protocol for some older systems. You can extend it so that it recognizes different protocols and can breakdown the packets (so that our custom protocol stopped being a hex blob and became actual useful information). With that, we could do a lot of filtering in Wireshark to monitor things during test and development.
