I have programmed an esp8266 to make some http get requests to a remote webserver. I would like to analyze this http requests somehow, with an external tool like Wireshark.
The purpose is to see how using simply http can compromise important data, opposed to using https. So for that I am trying to understand how is the request exposed for someone that sniffs it. Also to see if the https implementation is working properly, which should be.
The esp8266 and my computer are connected to the same router, through wi-fi. I have the esp8266 working on 192.168.1.5, but applying the Wireshark filter, doesn't show any traffic at all.
Questioning if the esp8266 traffic shows up at all in Wireshark in such configuration. What tools would be used for checking the esp8266 traffic if not Wireshark?
Thank you.
