Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Get name resolution for IEEE 802.15.4 MAC address

Hello,

I've tried to add my IEEE 802.15.4 address to this file:
$ cat ~/.config/wireshark/ethers   
00:12:4b:00:06:0d:97:cb a
00:12:4b:00:06:0d:84:64 b
14:15:92:cc:00:00:00:01 c
14:15:92:cc:00:00:00:02 d
14:15:92:cc:00:00:00:03 e

But I don't see MAC resolution happening.
Could the reason be that IEEE 802.15.4 is not ethernet? They are EUI-64 and not EUI-48.
I also got in ~/.config/wireshark/preferences:

nameres.mac_name: TRUE 

Best regards

Rémy

Hi,

If all is well I could see the Ethers file of use here?
