Installed wireshark for Networking package analysis

WIRESHARK

Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer. This is actually nice tool which gives opportunity to analyze  and understand different network layers. Each packet  traffic is diplayed when we start browsing a website.Its very easy to install in Ubuntu using 'Ubuntu Software center'. After installing I used the command and changed to root. I am not sure any alternative way for getting my 'wlan0' wifi internet without changing to root.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure wireshark-common

started wireshark with 'sudo wireshark'
