Hi Phaneedra,

You should be able to use tshark, it uses the same dissection as wireshark (assuming you use the same version number). 
Wireshark itself does not have CLI output, that's what's tshark is for :-)

Cheers,
Sake

Hi,

I have good hands on wireshark GUI. But now I want to use wireshark from command line, when capturefile and filter sent to wireshart it displays info on gui but I am trying to get output on cli.
My requirement is to get infor from wifi packets information elements. For example, I want to find packets with dtim period as 3 in beacons or TIM values or wmm paramets in data packets. This filters can be configured using CLI but out put opens in GUI. but I required it on stdout (cli). 
If we go for tcpdump or tshark I didn't get filters for those fields, these tools allows only type, subtyes and few other not all supported by wireshark.
I did search for cli output for wireshark but didn't find it. Can you please help me on this.
