Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] AVS-WLAN header changes to support 802.11n

["Jose Graziani" <jose_graziani@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a few questions about the header format.

 

The current AVS-WLAN header/spec doesn’t provide for support for 802.11n radio cards.

 

For example the following fields are some that can be provided by an 11n radio card driver:

 

• Per antenna RSSI (up to 4 antennas) – packet is split between them
• Aggregation bit

 

Are there any plans to add this support?  Who maintains this header?

 

Also why was the MAC time changed from nanoseconds to microseconds?

 

Thanks,
