Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] problem with display filter

Hi,

This can happen. The filter matches any packet having a dissected field
"ip.src" with the value "10.10.0.108". This is not necessaraly limited to
the IP layer. Also a payload can contains such fields, like in ICMP
messages or trace protocols.

Thanx,
Jaap
