SSL is not a text-based protocol.
- jacquesm 12y agoNeither is TCP, but that's just a wrapper. Inside the SSL/TLS wrapper it is still just HTTP. It's no longer 'in the clear' but it is still very much a text based protocol.
- haberman 12y agoAnd HTTP2 is essentially just a multiplexed wrapper around HTTP1-like semantics, AFAICS. I'm not an HTTP2 expert, but I would bet that WireShark can make an HTTP2 session look basically the same as a bunch of HTTP1 requests. It's the same "wrapper" concept except it adds multiplexing.
- MichaelGG 12y agoYeah and once you multiplex, your text based protocol is gonna suck to read anyways. So in practice you'll use Wireshark, and then you no longer care if it's text based.
