Expert Information - Severity Error
Hello,
I have a question about the topic.
If I set the packets under the respective error filter to Ignore, does this go into the network or is this ignored in the *.pcapng, only?
What does ignoring a packet do?
Is there an option to ignore error paket's permanently?
How can I prevent myself from always receiving the same error packets over the network?
Why do I have to do the manual with Wireshark, isn't it automatic? Should my firewall OPNsense do this?
I know these questions are very general. Nevertheless, I would be happy about an answer, maybe I will understand it better, because I only have user knowledge... However, I have been working with Wireshark for a few weeks now and have already gained experience.
Kind Regards Budking

Since I am now registered here, I want to ask an independent question, which has been bothering me for a long time. What does it actually depend on which packages I receive? In my opinion, it does not depend on the IP address or to whom the Internet connection is reported. This question is serious and I wonder if it depends on the personal aura?!?!
I've probably done a lot of things wrong with packets. Now I just came up with the idea of ignoring all TCP packets and did it! I don't even understand what TCP means !?!! Basically, I just don't want the network packets to get on my nerves anymore! Is it possible to ignore TCP packets all the time?
Have I done this right, if I want some packages to stop eating into my thoughts? So meant like the song by DMX – going to Make Me Lose My Mind
I need to understand Wireshark even better without understanding any of the code.
Nowadays, the internet is indispensable, even for me. But I want to protect myself from malware and handle what is going on in the background in the network in such a way that it is not unwanted attacks for me.
