Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] What filter value in -e will tell me the Channel an SSID is working on?

[Martin Visser <martinvisser99@xxxxxxxxx>]

In order to find appropriate values to monitor, it is generally much easier to initially view the captured data in Wireshark. Then find the decoded parameter of interest and select it. The appropriate name should should up in the Status Bar.

Unfortunately I can't do Wireless monitoring on my hardware, but Googling and  http://wiki.wireshark.org/Wi-Fi  seems to tell me that "wlan_mgt.ssid" might be what you are looking for.

The only thing I can find is Tag Interpretation: Current Channel

However I can't find a -e filter that matches that value.

Any help appreciated.
