Wireless sniffer -> ethereal - malformed packets

Survivor · June 13, 2007, 9:25pm

Hi

I tryied to sniff some packets from wireless interface via mikrotik 2.9.28
I opened the file in ethereal and the result is in the screen. What shall I do if I want to have there types of the packets (TCP,DNS,UDP) and source and destination IP addresses?

just found out Ethereal is no more… it’s now called Wireshark and the latest version supports MikroTik’s Sniffed packets.

Note to MT: you might want to change your ROS Docs, they still mention Ethereal.

The lead developer had to change the name. This was like a year or two ago!
