Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] gratuitous ARP

Won't something like "arp.src.proto_ipv4 == 1.2.3.4 && arp.dst.proto_ipv4 == 1.2.3.4" work. It would appear that you will have to specify a specific IP address. I tried "arp.src.proto_ipv4 == arp.dst.proto_ipv4" and wireshark decided it was an invalid filter

Hi MTIA,

Try this display filter:
(arp.src.proto_ipv4 == 192.168.1.111) && (arp.dst.hw_mac == 00:00:00:00:00:00)

It displays gratuitous arp requests and just a few other arp requests.

Hope this helps,
Joan

I'm looking to filter traffic so that only /gratuitous/ ARPs are

Any suggestions how I can achieve this?
