SLL is Linux cooked mode capture. It is a fake link-layer header, used 
instead of the real link-layer header (Ethernet) when capturing on the 
fake 'any' interface (regardless of the link types). It should contain 
the source MAC address if available, the protocol id, and other 
link-layer related information.
