Abstract

CoreCapture is Apple's primary logging and tracing framework for IEEE 802.11 on iOS and macOS. It allows users and developers to create comprehensive debug output for analysis by Apple. In this manual, we provide an overview into the concepts, show in detail how CoreCapture logs can be created on iOS and macOS, and introduce the first CoreCapture dissector for Wireshark.
