1. Wi-Fi Packet Analysis using Wireshark

Wireshark is a network protocol sniffer and analyzer. It lets you capture and interactively browse the traffic running on a target network. Wireshark can read live data from Ethernet, Token-Ring, FDDI, serial (PPP and SLIP), and 802.11 wireless LAN. Npcap is a library that is integrated with Wireshark for complete WLAN traffic analysis, visualization, drill-down, and reporting. Wireshark can be used in monitor mode to capture wireless traffic. It is able to capture a vast number of management, control, data frames, etc. and further analyze the Radiotap header fields to gather critical information such as protocols and encryption techniques used, length of the frames, MAC addresses, etc.

You can open a captured file in wireshark to analyze it.

The 8.cap file opens in Wireshark window showing you the details of the packet for analysis. Here you can see the wireless packets captured which were otherwise masked to look like ethernet traffic.

Here 802.11 protocol indicates wireless packets.

You can access the saved packet capture file anytime, and by issuing packet filtering commands in the Filter field, you can narrow down the packet search in an attempt to find packets containing sensible information.

In real time, attackers enforce packet capture and packet filtering techniques to capture packets containing passwords (only for websites implemented on HTTP channel), perform attacks such as session hijacking, and so on.

2. Find wifi networks and sniff traffic with wash and wireshark

airmon-ng start wlan0
wash -i wlan0mon0   //to check WPS enable networks

Filter 802.11 packets in wireshark

You can also use other wireless traffic analyzers such as AirMagnet WiFi Analyzer PRO (https://www.netally.com), SteelCentral Packet Analyzer (https://www.riverbed.com), Omnipeek Network Protocol Analyzer (https://www.liveaction.com), and CommView for Wi-Fi (https://www.tamos.com) to analyze Wi-Fi traffic.
