Summary: Incorrect packet analysis of outgoing wifi broadcast
Product: Wireshark
Version: 0.99.2
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: Low
Component: Wireshark
AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: awagner@xxxxxxxxxx
Running Fedora FC5 updated to Wireshark 0.9.2 as downloaded in Fedora RPM
"wireshark.x86_64.0.99.2-fc5.2" running with a RaTech rt2600 PCI wifi adapter.
The packet displayed in tyhe attachment was obviously miss-analized.
The first 6 bytes (ff ff ff ff ff ff) are analized as "frame control and
flags"but looking at the raw data would seem to indicate the 6 bytes are a
broadcast address. The following sis bytes are indeed the HWAddress of my PCI
WIFI adapter. It is beyond my limited knowledge to determine just what the
packets true analysis should be but the shown analysis is not correct.
