I’m using my cell phone and toggling the WiFi connection on and off. Regardless, when an unknown host comes online it will generate one or more ARP requests. Those are the frames you should look for. Once you’ve spotted the request, click on it. Use Wireshark’s Packet details view to analyze the frame. Look at the Address resolution protocol section of the frame, especially the Sender IP address and Sender MAC address. In this case, you can see my phone received an IP address of 192.168.1.182 from the router, and you can identify the device as an Apple phone by looking at the vendor OUI.
Wireshark IP address puller using DHCP requestsĪnother easy way to determine the IP address of an unknown host on your network is to use DHCP traffic. This method only works if the host requests an IP address.
