Summary: Tshark capture filter does not work when IP is of APIPA
type (169.254)
Product: Wireshark
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: Minor
Priority: Low
Component: TShark
AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: ioannis_k@xxxxxxxxxxx
Build Information:
Windows XP SP3, Wireshark 1.0.2 or 1.0.3 or 1.0.5 always with Winpcap 4.0.2.

I tried to capture from an Interface with an IP address of type 169.254 using
tshark with the following command:
tshark -i4 -a filesize:100 -b files:1000 -f "tcp port 80" -w tracetest.pcap
The result is that Tshark doesn't capture anything. When I do not use the
capture filter for that interface, I capture all the packets on the wire.
At the same PC there are more interfaces and one of them has ip address
10.3.xxx.xxx and the same command (except that the -i4 is -i2 for example)
works without any problem.
I know that it is weird to have an interface set to 169.254 ... believe me it
was not my choice :-)
Thanks in advance for your help.
regards,
Yiannis
