Can the time column represent the transmission time?
I have a packet capture and I am trying to find the transmission time for each captured packet. Transmission time is defined as: the total time the frame takes to transmit data
I have a column called time and I can edit the view of the column from the time display format in the menu bar. I have the "Seconds since beginning of capture selected in Microseconds".
The time column looks like this: Time 0.000000 0.075057 0.089551 0.093888 0.110380 0.110447 0.126355
1- My first question is, does the time column represent the transmission time for each packet ?
2- If not, how do I find the transmission time?
Thanks

By that do you mean the difference between the time at which the first part of the packet is put on the network and the time at which the last part of the packet is put on the network, rather than the time at which the first part of the packet is put on the network or the time at which the last part of the packet is put on the network?
Umm I meant the time it takes one entire packet to be delivered from source to destination. So yeah I guess how you wrote it is the same: "the difference between the time at which the first part of the packet is put on the network and the time at which the last part of the packet is put on the network".
Do you think there is a way to calculate this on Wireshark? Or do I actually need external hardware to capture this?
